This is a very interesting poem that makes me think of Dr. Suess' green eyes and ham. You used very good wording and very good imagery with the artwork. Very colorful. We all need to pray for our president! Blessings, Teri

Comment from Elizabeth Henderson
Love it! This is a great piece of writing. The satire is awesome and so true! I real"lee" think that the whole country has gone mad"lee" overboard. We are no longer fami"lee". We must live separat"lee" and feed on the force-fed spam we see on the tel"lee"vision. Keep writing, my friend - this deserves 6 stars.

Bless you for the 6. I just got a 4 from a lib, but he was nice about it, so that's ok.
I probably shouldn't have written this. I just get so fed up.
Comment from Pullmanspb
What can I say that's positive about this poem? You did a great job of keeping the rhythms and silliness of the original green eggs and ham. And, you got guts, I have to say that.

The lyrics were fun and the poem flowed really well. I guess I'm one of the people that should go back to loserville as I am not a fan of the 'Boss' (my opinion). I really liked the poem though, Thank you for sharing and best wishes in the contest

What a nice person you are! I am just put out (as you can see) with all the incessant attacks on him. not fair play in my book, but I appreciate your unbiased critique and kindness. thank you.
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written poem about the disrespect some of the people of America show to the Presudent. It seems that they are only interested in selling the country to the devil.

Comment from Marvin Calloway
This piece is must reading. It is timely and makes many important points.
You've brilliantly covered a lot of territory in a masterful way. Your words are not antagonistic, like those they're responding to.
This piece should appear in every news paper in the country.

Hi Pome Lover:
This is awesome! I'm sure Dr. Seuss won't mind the parody of his Green Eggs and Ham. The meter is great and you've done a fantastic job with the subject matter. I agree with what you say here. Enough is enough already! It is a great example of ethics and integrity (or maybe the lack thereof.)
Good luck in the contest!

well, bless your heart! thank you! Have been afraid I would get blasted - and I may - but so far, except for one very nice and kind liberal, the reviewers have agreed. You're right - enough already!
thanks again.

I agree. What happened to restraint? to manners?
Comment from Irish Rain
Amen. I'm there with you. Read the political forum. It is full of total nonsense, all against Trump. How many times does he have to condemn white supremecy??? But....people are pissed...because he called out the other side too, as well he should. They are ALL hate groups. Obama left him a mess, a country divided, and it really doesn't matter WHAT Trump says or does...they will condemn him. Loved your poem, I agree!!! Blessings...

you echo my sentiments exactly. disgusting! However, I learned two hysterical new words today from a reviewer:
Demonrats and Democraps. I have shamelessly stolen them.
Thank you for your well expressed and great review. Again, I'm out of recs. Truly sorry. Next month am going to hoard.

I always run out of those....and my sixes...so quickly. Yes, I loved your write, and I know a few on here agree. But...it is 'no longer politically correct' to say we support Trump, ha ha. I think all the whiners, troublemakers, the offended...need to put a lid on it. It's getting old.
