“Trump-ed”
I got my website moved to firmer ground,
Just as Dreamweaver and its ilk were found
To be beyond what income can sustain;
And, leaving, I see bigger world I’ve gained.For like all bigness, dry-rot shows its head
Unseen for years, by that time big is dead;
Small business with its software light and tough,
Has life expectancy so short it’s rough.United States is big, and Russia too;
With China things are different, they’re renewed;
They’ll get to here, for now they freshness bring
To commerce, culture – how they do their thing.Trump is the messenger of Plato’s Cave –
“We’ve been deceived” will be tomorrow’s rave,
When folks wake up to see the party’s done
(They knew before, but party-time is fun).Trump’s problem, like friend Jim long years ago,
Who mopped up mess from Student’s Council flow
Of cash the year before – “We’ll fix this up
And leave behind a balance – brace for tough.”We all have mind-games we would rather play
Than face the music early in the day;
We wait ’till dark, then slip out quietly –
To somewhere else, denying as we flee.Lord, as he gets prepared to lend a hand
In world of give-and-take, equip this man;
It won’t be easy, rich and poor alike
Are greedy for their share, prepared to fight –Just like the “Middle-class” – without the poor
They’d lowest be, and that has no allure;
Without the rich, who would they blame (“That’s us –
Now at the top, Creators of the fuss”).The “Jezebel effect” now comes to front,
As clergy and their spouses bear the brunt
Of pressure, like the tip of arrow’s flight –
Increasingly it wedges – things are tight.Good news is, those are signs of brighter day,
When God at last will show a better way;
For bottom of the cliff brings clarity –
“ ’Twas oh so needless”, such folks say to me.Thanks Lord for this.
