Poetry inspired by the Trump Administration

Paul Ryan, Ayn Rand

Poetry by Dan Farber at Legal Planet:

A Man Named Paul Ryan

There once was a man named Paul Ryan,

For whom de-regulation was Zion,

Emissions limits he hated

Lest coal be frustrated,

And his lodestar was someone called Ayn.

The Man From Trump Tower

There once was a man from Trump Tower,

Who longed to have absolute power.

All budgets he’d slash

And the planet he’d trash

And the oceans with acid he’d sour.

A Man Called Scott Pruitt

There once was a man called Scott Pruitt

Who said, “Why, there’s nothing to it!

“You undo all the regs,

“Cut them off at the legs

And tell all the polluters, ‘go to it!’”

The Fellow Named Mitch

There once was a fellow named Mitch,

Whose campaign coffers grew rich,

His passion for coal

Had devoured his soul,

Leaving only a faint smell of pitch.

Trump Administration

There once was an Administration

Whose policies caused consternation.

To turn back the clock

And cause liberals shock

Were their highest goals for the nation.
