Why do liberals and progressives, whatever you want to call them

            My kind of people

Insist on putting down Trump

By calling him fat?

As if their words are clever and cutting, like they are saying something of substance

Orange skin, orange hair, orange orange everywhere

Easy, tempting perhaps

but low

Looking like Bradley Cooper

Wouldn’t make his policy

            If you could call it that

Any better

WAKE UP!

People’s lives are on the line

So why do we resort to acting like schoolyard bullies?

His heft, face, skin, hair

tiniest of tiny hands

All of this is beside the point

This life we live is not a Saturday Night Live special

Can’t we do better?
