Cheerful Young Fascists at my Door - poem

Cheerful Young Fascists at my Door

 

Pickup-trucking along on a Saturday morning

Rosy-red cheeks and rosy-red baseball caps

Laughing in youthful joy this cold winter day

Anxious to spread their Leader’s polemics

 

On the march from their truck and back

Bearing pamphlets and posters and signs

With triumphalist messages of loyalty

To a man who has betrayed everyone he ever met

 

I almost broke their hearts when I told them to go

But soon enough they will be breaking people’s heads
