A protest poem.

'Trump, The Hollow Man'

The hollow man,
An empty space with walls inside
That reverberate in silence,
To the impulses of madness

Kneel to the God of excess,
No limits or constraints
In the fevered mind that fuels,
The slavish desires of a despot

Everything he touches turns to ashes,
A graveyard of burning ambition
Where ruthless vampires prey,
On the souls of those he mocks

In the long nights of despair,
The wolf howls at the moon
And taunts the earth to turn,
The face of man to darkness

But sometime soon he'll fall,
Into the emptiness of insignificance
His epitaph will be carved,
In the halls of ignominious failure

And the world will fill with light,
And bury his legacy of destruction
And his worshippers will deny, 
They ever knelt for him

 Reviews of "'Trump,The Hollow Man'"
Reviewed by Michael Schafer
Reviewed on August 25, 2018
Excellent write here, but I wonder if his base will ever cease their blind devotion to him. They are a cult of personality, and it seems as though that Trump can do no wrong in their eyes. I wrote a poem titled Worship at the altar of Trump, Which deals with this. Please check it out if you get a chance.
