Rape of Humanity and rape of this planet

 


WHAT DOES IT MEAN WHEN


the most powerful nation in the world
offers two personalities
as candidates for president?

One is a retired soldier
who won medals for bravery
the other
a lying rapist too clever
to be charged.

They each display their differences
with pride
one who cares about people
one who talks as if
people are merely to be used.

The nice guy stumbles with memory and speech 
looks and sounds his age

the other is the misogynist trickster narcissist
who brags his achievement
owes nothing to anyone

who should we vote for?

the contemptious trickster
or the man who has a conscience
and memory loss
nice guy who sometimes stumbles
over his speech

or the clever lizard
who ridicules women and decent men

why with all their power did they choose
two opposing extremes?

why have powerful nations been destroyed
by fascist governments
led by men who brag about their power

is this an oversight 
accident poor decision
or is it intended
and if so 
why?
