TRUMP’S TIP
(spiraling abecedarian)
| Randy and | |
| ridiculous, | stuffed and |
| salacious, | Trump |
| tricks | uses |
| undermines | violates and |
| vomits about | wooing |
| women. | Xtra-Xtra |
| exposes his | yucky |
| yearning | zipper. |
| Zoo | animals like |
| apes | behave |
| better. | Catcalling and |
| creeping, | doing what The |
| Donald does, his | ego enlarges |
| explodes erupts | fat, |
| far | greater than his |
| girth and | hoarding. |
| He | ingratiates |
| impulsively. | Just |
| johnson | knee-jerks, |
| kissing | leching |
| leaving out | mature |
| manhood. | Noisily |
| newsy, | openly |
| ostentatious, | predictably |
| petty | quotes |
| quickly | rob Richie Rich of any |
| remaining respect. |

Kathleen A. Lawrence: “This poem was based on the news story that broke early Friday about a tape of Donald Trump from 2005. On a hot mic Trumps brags to Billy Bush, host of Extra!, about his lewd exploits of women. He boasts using crude references and strong language about his abuse of what he calls his ‘star’ status. He explains to an attentive Bush that you can ‘Grab them by the pussy.’ In his pursuit of ‘beautiful’ women he will grab them, kiss them, because ‘They let you do anything.’”
