You are very generous, Marilyn. Thanks for the excellent review!

I mean this sincerely - i make fun of Hillary, but I truly believe that, with her flaws, that for many have been exaggerated by her enemies, she will make a better president than you fear. Of course, you won't agree with her politics, but that's what we take turns experiencing over the years. The GOP will rise again.

Here is what frightens me the most about her--she wants to change the fundamental nature of the country through globalization and totally open borders in our hemisphere. She's not telling the truth about anything. Our country will cease to exist as we know it. Don't even get me started.

I'm sorry, Marilyn. I was trying to reassure you that she won't bring about the disasters you envision.
(You know that those were my fears about a Trump presidency.) I didn't intend to upset you. Peace!

I'm not upset, Don. It's gonna be what it's gonna be. Both sides have to accept the inevitable.

Excellent political satire with witty rhyming and a funny presentation as well. I like how this has well timed inventive rhymes and meter as well as poetic devices.

One optional suggestion:

Hillary's a character, and Trump's a cartoon,(;) she's a hack and he's a buffoon.

Good luck. Should prove a strong contender.

warmly, rd

Thanks for your comments, Rose. You will get no argument from me about the buffoon. You should try some Monostich poems.. They're the easiest form to write in. just one line of any length. This year's Monostitch contest prompts haven't specified a topic, so you could have written anything you wanted to, provided it was a one-line poem.
Cheers!
