CINQUAIN

 oh no
don't hold your breath
tough times awaiting us
four long years are looming ahead
good luck


there was a guy so weird
who goosed the statue of liberty
without fear
he said god chose him 
cos he was the best
as millions of americans
seem to attest

  1. Uncertain times ahead, I guess. Perfect imagery!

  2. You are assuming that he will go after four years, of course.

  5. Excellent images. Based upon things Trump has said and done since Wednesday, I truly believe that “free and fair” elections in the U.S. are done.

  6. Dear Rall, many of us are reeling from the election result ... though I believe the Democrats (I am one of them) forgot to reach the 'middle of us' ... and the result was disastrous. I hope four years is the extent of it.

  7. Looking from outside the US, I do think the current wars will continue too...

  8. I wouldn't have expected to see THAT cartoon here! Yes, it annoys people in the US, too, when Trump confuses immigrants with international criminals. But I'll be greatly surprised if the next four years are worse than Trump's first four years--and those weren't bad years, now were they?

  9. As an American citizen, I am definitely holding my breath, and shaking my head.
