The peaceful transfer
Of power will only pass
If King Donald wins.

Ban

You love to ban books
That reveal the rape of slaves
By white male owners.

You love to ban books
That show Indigenous folk
Are persecuted.

You love to ban books
That tell truths about how race
Is constructed caste.

You love to ban books
And claim you love the Bible
When you don’t forgive.

You love to ban books
And binge watch television.
That’s why you’re so smart.

You love to ban books
And think that we won’t ban you.
You’re fired, genius.

You can’t get a job—
You’re a convicted felon.
You should have been Trump.

Birthday cake tastes great—
When you blow out the candles
And feed us your spit.
