Mafia

corrupt pseudo-kingpin
wallowing in trump soup
alphabet spells out mafia

blood sausage
new york butcher
carving mad-cow diseased recruits

poet scarface
scribbles diatribes
rants reviewed authors den militia

O'ode dead johns
ghetto pimps
noah's ark syphilis

mob writer
book covers torn off
tossed in salvation army thrift store bins

fail...

unsuccessful...

mafia mentality...

fail...

Hi Sage, I haven't been around this side much for years, but I'm back now (I give myself powerful backlinks from here) so I'll be seeing you around.

Loved the poem, the style reminds me of 1960s beat poets (oops, showing my age now) but the phrase Trump soup cracked me up. Did you know that over here trump is a more polite word for a noisy emission of intestinal gas than fart.
Trump soup - what a horrible thought.

Those on the wrong side of history always do. I don't know why we idolize them for their misdeeds?
