Joe Biden,
like the decent human being
he happens to be,
gave his race for the presidency
to his vice-president
and she, like an anchor sprinter
in a relay race,
has taken the baton
like a runner fully into
winning the race,
saying, without slowing her pace:
Hell no, we will not go back
to the “Good Old Days”
MAGA cultists yearn for,
and lookers-on have roared
their approval,
liking the idea of moving forward
to a better nation,
to having their hero, a prosecutor by profession,
taking on a felon
with guilt written all over his face,
and money came rushing in
and delegates for her presidential bid came rushing in
and volunteers are rushing in
like water gushing from a dam break,
people finally joining in
to put an end
to a major danger to the United States
by choosing someone who has put away
folks like him,
men who abuse women,
fraudsters and con-men,
cheaters who break the rules for their own gain,
to which Kamala,
who is known to be kick-ass in a fight,
says:
“I know Donald Trump’s type.”
With every day folks joining in
we’re going to rescue our democracy
from evil hands.
