RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: AMERICAN POLITICS
American Empire
What’s bigger than a business mogul?
A senator or president
What’s better than a president?
A king
What’s grander than a king?
An emperor
Of thee I sing
He wants a piece of Canada
The northern passage calls
He wants a slice of Panama
So he can build another wall
He wants to purchase Greenland
Their resources are sweet
He wants an American empire
To make his dream complete
Why not a piece of Mexico?
The swath around the border
Venezuelan oil beckons
Conquest by executive order
How about a piece of Uruguay
He could give it to his friends
He could use a stake in Africa
On this his hopes depend
It’s a new world order
And it’s just around the bend
The old world order
Is coming to an end
