Election Doublethink
Oct 29, 2020
here we hear the tale as told by words, the survivors —
to this despoiler of ancient treasure, to this presidential plunderer,
science is fiction
faith is fact
false means true
fake means real
worst is best
hoary mobs cheers the defiler as he wrestles phrases to the mat
pluck out their eyes! crush their voice boxes!
always steal the words first
— and here come his caste wars, huddled masses yearning to breathe,
their earth slowly cooking —
shhhh! our wishes for Ignoramus Rex
must stay secret, or they may not come true
