‘My name is Donald Trump, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!’
Boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.”
My name is Donald Trump and I understand none of this shit:
When with the skin you do acknowledge drought,
The dry in the voice, the lightness of feet, the fine
Flake of the heat at every level line;
When with the hand you learn to touch without
Surprise the spine for the leaf, the prickled petal,
The stone scorched in the shine, and the wood brittle;
Then where the pipe drips and the fronds sprout
And the foot-square forest of clover blooms in sand,
You will lean and watch, but never touch with your hand
Wow! Glad I looked it up. That’s brilliant!
