BULLY PULPIT

Excuse me, Judge,

to be fair

I must be allowed to break the rule

of law and every other kind

so I may be able to do my thing,

which right now,

well, since forever,

has been running rings

around the opposition

to whatever scheme

currently could make me king.

Money has never been enough.

So, judge, I have to get tough.

You cannot believe

you can treat me

like all the other thugs,

who commit crimes

but cannot stand to do the time.

I am in a political campaign.

I have no time to admit the blame

for what I have done,

and continue to do.

Judge, shame on all of you.

Those other criminals can admit

their crime.

I simply do not have the time.

My problems are all because

of Jack Smith who dares to charge me

with crimes I have committed

against the country and the people

I must rule.

Judge, your interference

is really cruel.

If you, or anyone else, gets in my way

there will be hell to pay.

That should do it.

That is what I have to say.

Bullies always get their way.

I am the biggest bully of them all.

Let the others take my fall.
