Avast ye— t’was on planet earth
Yo ho America the realm
That sailed off course when Russia
Put cockswain Trump at the helm
~
Abaft in the White House
And each dungbie thar in
Sons (in-law) o biscuit eaters
And more hornswagglers moved in
~
Voyaging on toward Russia
An iceberg dossier appeared
Held by privateer James Comey
Whose forthrightness was bigly feared
~
Trump flexed his flabby muscle
Tried tapered bully charm
Hands hoy, er ye be shark bait
Senate sounded the alarm
~
Thar be more than one black spot
‘Pon further inspection
Mike Pence too will walk the plank
Scuttle future elections
~
Powder monkey Paul Ryan
Plays a plaintive melody
On his violin sinking
With his band the GOP
~
Their tune a compilation
Healthcare, Banks, and Tax reform
Nary enuf lifeboats fer
Trump’s pre-existing faux platform
