2017, a poem

James J Jackson

2017

Pussy hats,

“white women voted for Trump”

Fake news.

“Russia! Russia! Russia!”

and a meme of Jan Brady.

El Chapo was here.

Emmitt Till

was killed for nothing,

but we already knew that.

Chelsea Manning.

Betsy Devos.

Neil Gorsuch.

Sally Yates.

ACLU.

Gag order.

Muslim ban.

Piss tapes.

And that was all

just in January!
