Midnight in America – Inaguration Day Blues

A Soviet style state sponsored press conference
meant to boost the POTUS self-confidence

With file folders filled with blank pages
a backdrop for a smoke and mirrors magic trick for the ages

Foreshadowing a man made disaster
orchestrated by a malevolent ringmaster

The sign ahead for America reads “end of the line”
and for our country I am as nervous a canary in a coal mine

Millions of people maybe lose health care and some may die
and still some people don’t care and I don’t know why

We no have time to debate esoterica
for I’m afraid it is soon to be Midnight In America
