Why Donald Trump won —

There once was an Elephant from New York                                       

Who gave a stubborn jackass a good pork

The ass said oh dear

I really do fear 

Next thing they'll stick in US is a pitchfork

The Villain in the Villanelle

CAN MAD DOG MATTIS

You push away love
Like scraps on your plate                         

You're a hawk no dove

Look to God above
You seem close to hate
You push away love

Stifling like a glove

You're a hawk no dove

Kill the welfare state!
You push away love

The elite thereof
Boldly profligate
You're a hawk no dove

Human bereft of
In your moneyed state
You push away love

You're a hawk no dove
