he has some characteristics of
nixon
wallace
thurmond
they were unethical immoral politicians
demagogues
but
they were intelligent
they did sometimes
truly look out for the interests of their constituency
they were decent populists sometimes statesmen …
even if they were mostly wrong
he is worse
absolutely narcissistic, corrupt, and empty of empathy
little ignorant shallow
yet
loraine graciella sharon sherry
enough others too many others
–folk I thought were good and decent—
elected him
still support him
they’ve enabled his killing
of souls, of living flesh
of soul
enabled the spilling of the blood of creation
eroding of soil,
polluting of air and water,
destruction of photosynthesizers and ecological communities
enabled biocidal ecocidal global climate change
enabled the elimination of species
empowered his
socially unjust inhumane ecologically insane
policies and actions
i feel much shame
i am so inept
at facilitating learning and the remolding of minds and eliciting good behaviors
(and yes … including within and from self)
i feel shame
using Ali’s very succinct poem …
it is “ME” not “we”
that they have in mind
in God, yes … in TRUMP they trust!
In Artificial in Synthetic
In War in Military Power in Police Power
In Guns in Nuclear Armaments
in Walls and Bubbles in TRUMP they trust
in white Power in DOMINATION!!!
in xenomistrust in only accepting the “norm”
in THEY they trust In TRUMP they trust in THEY they trust
in God, yes … in TRUMP they trust!
i feel shame
i am so inept
at facilitating learning and the remolding of minds and eliciting good behaviors
(and yes … including within and from self)
i feel much shame
