President Narcissus
Mirror Mirror on the wall
Who’s the fairest of them all?
His reflection so pretty everything has to
Stop
Drowning in beauty
Choking on ego
Narcissus sits at the top
They kiss his feet
And pass his laws
The King, The Boss,
The crooked and Self absorbed
His eyes, dimands
His soul, dirty, filthy, coal
A corrupt politician behind closed doors
Charming, Coy to the public eye
He will refuse to play along
Me, myself and I he thinks
As he sits and waits
For tragedy to go by
Misfortune has never helped his compain
Mr. Narcissus gets what he wants
Don’t say no, smile nod
Elections to him?
A high school popularity contest
He gets by on his good looks
Not cut out for this job, “They” all say
Mr. Narcissus stares at his reflection is responce
But when obsessed with self-image
You might self-destruct
Scandals and crimes
Violence and cruelty
“They” can’t look away
Mirror Mirror on the wall
Who’s the most evil of them all?
Echo knows
She won’t be tricked
The leader…
Is no better than child throwing a fit
Echo knows
Narcissus is not humble
Echo knows
He has vetoed and refused to vote
Echo knows
Narcissus prefers to waste his days looking in a mirror
And even though
Echo knows
One eventually gets tired
Of Eching the Truth
And getting told it is
Fake News
