Stay in the moment, they say - not for me.

I plan for the future, today's history.

So, Donald the come back king garnered most votes.

A Democrat whines, a Republican gloats.

Let's suffer together and see what transpires.

Alternative zoophile thinking inspires.

Untrustworthy humans claim the planet as theirs,

bequeathing parched deserts to resentful heirs.

They live in cramped cities, concrete mausolea,

survival from which is a forlorn idea.

If only a candidate, fresh, could emerge

perhaps we could take one step back from the verge.

A silverback savant's sharp rallying call:

"Vote for Harambe, I'll work for you all.

You sapient homos, my guidance await.

Give me your backing in 2028!"







Writing Prompt


Write a poem with any sort of rhyming schematic to commemorate or lament the election. Anger, profanity, and gloating are permitted as long as there is rhyming and appropriate content disclaimers are included.

POLITICAL COMMENTARY IN THE AUTHOR NOTES IS NOT PERMITTED. Use your poem to say what you have to say. Author notes may be used to cite other content on or off of FanStory which is itself political, and you may include images and videos with text (eg memes), just not a bunch of text in the notes.
