Dear Mr. T
Why did you do that
Why did you say that
Why must belittling others
Be your brand of heroine
Why do you get high
Off of other people’s sorrows
Why can’t you see past
Your thin sheet of glass
If no one respects you
As you conquer new land
You will have no one
To share in your riches
Can’t you see all
The things you have broken
I guess you can’t see
The wake of your destruction
You are destroying lives
And you don’t even care
And you’re leader of the free world
And everyone’s scared
But maybe this was
Our needed alarm sound
If a man like you
Is who represents us all
Maybe we won’t make
These same mistakes again
But that will never fix
What’s already been done
We are forever scarred
By your heinous behavior
You didn’t make America great
You reared its ugly head
I’m still mourning the loss
I’m still grieving my pain
But maybe one day
I’ll have hope again
