What will seized papers show
of secrets only a few could know?
Would Russia have invadedUkraine
for what President Trump thought to gain
if he served President Zelensky on a golden plate?
That is his way, as we all know,
never enough gold his greed to satiate.
What cabal operated amidst the Oval Office din
across Foggy Bottom from Russia then back again?
What criminal enterprises are hidden in the folds
of papers boxed away in Mar-a-Lago?
The “Right to Know” answers to such questions
Is the National Archives most sacred treasure,
and the people must know every measure
of every step taken at government’s direction.
Archives exist for our most basic protection
as a free people in a free nation.
