The Laureate-Lady Liberty


Lady Liberty

Since Eighteen Hundred, Eighty-eight
Lady Liberty welcomed guests.
The New Colossus at her gate
has the words that we attest,
“...your...masses yearning to breathe free
...send these...tempest-tost to me.”

O’er one hundred years those words rang true
‘til Prez said that poor are taboo.
‘Tis time Trump knows he is but one,
and we decide what should be done.
{Could be the last of you?}
