The Fifth of November

Remember, remember
The fifth of November
When we the people
Took America back
From mobsters and traitors,
Prevaricators,
Fake news propagandists
And political hacks.

Remember, remember
The fifth of November--
The day when the Democrats
Tried to install
A cackling phony,
Who uttered baloney--
An empty pantsuit
Without a soul.

Remember, remember
The fifth of November--
The day we said no
To the ruling elite,
To open borders,
Wars and corruption--
When our victory
Was their defeat.

Sing, poet, sing
Your verses aloud
The beacon of freedom
Shines throughout the land
Upon the bold,
Courageous and proud,
Who endlessly fought
To restore it again.
