Special Feature: Selected Poems in Response to the Wannabe Dictator, Donald Trump: In America, the Law Is King!

My Friends:

Today, millions of people are rising again to show the world: America has no kings, and the power belongs to the people.


Trump Empire, Inc, LIX
written in response to No Kings Protest, II: 

this recurring dream:
           ME
a                        rica
formed by buzzing drones over 
the white House bathed in dusk


FYI: The following poems were written in response to No Kings Protest, I, June 14, 2025:
Trump Empire, Inc, XXXVIII

in gathering dark
the entrance to Mar-a-Lago
No Parking Any Time  😎

No Kings Protest:
chant after chant of fried truth
eggflation
scrambled justice, poached rights,
cracked democracy...Trump, Fuck Off


(FYI: The Nation, June 16: The No Kings! Movement Trumped Trump

Thomas Paine from Common Sense, the 1776 rejection of King George III and the British monarchy, which declared, “O ye that love mankind! Ye that dare oppose, not only the tyranny, but the tyrant, stand forth!”

More than 5 million everydayAmericans stood forth, as patriots, and trumped Trump.

In America, the law is King!)


To conclude today's Special Feature post, I would like to share with you the following protest song:


People rise up people come together
We never give up we never surrender
To the forces that would keep us down
Our hearts are found
We’re mother bound

Keep on keep on lovers we’ve got what it takes
To shake off the shame and stay awake
Feel the feels and heal the deal
Take it all the way
Stay real

People rise up people come together
One foot in front of the other
Walk on walk on our hearts can crush this
Stand for peace
Work for justice

Keep a weary eye on the powers that be
Keep taking back our democracy
Keep your eyes up keep your mind sharp
The light in our eyes moving
Through the dark
