Diaper Donnie Tilts At You-Know-What

We all know how much our dearly despised abhorred reviled tolerated *preznit hates renewable energy because he can’t game the market and profit from it, and of all the alternative forms of power out there, I think wind is #1 on his hit list, as Desi Lydic pointed out yesterday. Well, with that in mind, I was recently visited by the muse, and I’d like to share the following:

Like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within a wheel
Or the grumbling in your stomach when you miss a Happy Meal
Affection for your children that you feel just now and then
Or delusions of Joe Biden when he used an Autopen
As Ivanka Trump lay buried underneath the fairway green
Or those rallies with “the faithful” where you always make a scene
Showing all the gaps they find in the windmills of your mind

Like the wormhole that you follow to delusions in your head
Where a cognitive exam should find some common sense instead
When the bronzer starts to melt, revealing layers of your tan
As you escalate pre-emptive war without end in Iran
As Xi detects our defense posture slowly start to crack
Knowing full well that this century belongs to Asia PAC
It’s a pity just to find only windmills of your mind

Like the growing voice of protest that you’ll never, ever quell
Or your Mar-a-Lago bathroom full of classified “intel”
Or all the ICE detainees fighting bravely to be free
Or musicians that are bailing on “250” in D.C.
Or those who hope our economic hardship does relent
Or Russell Vought’s conniving to protect the one percent
Our integrity's declined from the windmills of your mind

Like the pardons handed out when all the bribery was paid
Like the pain to poor and farmers from destroying US AID
Our infrastructure crumbles, while you act so unaware
As your FLOTUS flouts compassion, showing only a blank stare
Like the swirling lies behind the dark spaces we all find
In the windmills of your mind

With apologies to Michel Legrand, wherever he may be (a parody of a song in a movie about a crook, appropriately enough).
