The orange-haired Emperor,
his bullies
and henchmen
terrorize the world
every day,
which is why
every day
we need
a little poem
of kindness,
a small song
of peace,
a brief moment
of joy.
-David Budbill
Note: Budbill wrote this poem during the Bush administration and referred to him as the Emperor. The updated “orange-haired” version is my addition.
