The GOP Down the Rabbit Hole

So up is down and down is up

We’ve all sunk through the rabbit hole

Women’s wombs they supervise

Concealed guns though they do allow

Candidates choose their voters now

Democracy be damned and it must bow

Screw the Constitution

Screw our public health

Screw pandemic vaccines

Screw redistributing the wealth

Sideways no longer exists

My way or the highway shall ever persist

The “family values” Party of the past

Values only power for its die is cast

Screw face masks

Screw the science

Screw the Earth

Screw the climate crisis upon us

The Party of “small government”

Imposes control for its own betterment

To win elections is all they care

Altering the scales often when they dare

Screw women, girls, LGBTQ

Screw black and brown bodies

Screw the poor and working classes

Screw immigrants & refugees

For on top GOP wants to remain

In bed and in the public domain

A Christian theocracy they wish to attain

White supremacy is their continued aim

Screw the infidels

Screw Muslims and Jews

Screw atheists and agnostics

Screw Sikhs and Hindus

No diversity or inclusion

Advocacy is mere collusion

No critical race discussions

No lessons on those delusions

Screw gender variants

Screw critical thought

Screw civil disobedience

Screw those communist plots

The Grand Old Party are we

We’ve been here seemingly an eternity

It will maintain and grow by cheating

Thievery is permanent and no longer fleeting

Screw reason

Screw civility

Screw discourse

Screw nicety

We’re here in control for now and ever after

Whatever you do will never matter

We have the will of the people on our side

Well, at least enough to control the tide

The GOP in 1000 years still will be

But where else did I hear a similar prophecy?
