There were walls everywhere up and down especially
But also all around, indeed, they were rounding up
I now find as the person occupying the White House
Has called out the National Guard on the whole city

That just last week I found with “NO KINGS” in tents
Saying IMPEACH-CONVICT-REMOVE outside Union
Station while just down Louisiana Avenue NE to NW
There were ten or twelve police cars with sirens wailing

To where huge Palestinian flags were red-green- black
Unfurled in front the plaza that houses C-Span, CNN
And Fox no news offices where they all were being called
Out for their ritualistic use of the passive voice ‘coverage’

Of Israel’s genocide starvation of actually ancient Gaza
But just like that, that shutting down of this our Capitol
Of the US of A is just another diversion from very real
Scandal of the current TRUMP DUMP the Epstein list

Of those powerful people, men and women, who so were
Involved in trafficking over one thousand young persons.

(While anyone can know that Pam and Russ Martens and
their Wall Street on Parade document that J.P. Morgan-
Chase and Deutsche banks have been fined many millions
for their connections to Epstein &Zionists who paid him.)
