Trump’s Just Reward

Trump’s raking in billions from his crypto grift.
And he got a new Air Force One as a gift. (1)
The “average” man’s fortunes are sliding downhill
As MAGAs discover that they have been stiffed.

Since Trump spends his time with his hand in the till,
Will he have to swallow a most bitter pill?
Will Donald’s reward for his long life of crime,
Be sharing a cell with big, “beautiful Bill?”

True patriot heartburn from refluxing chyme,
World slipping and sliding in Donald Trump’s slime:
Will he reap his just deserts for grift and graft?
Prayers waft to the gods to see Donald do time.

We’ve watched as he’s given supporters the shaft
He lied, got elected; meanwhile, Satan laughed.
Is Trump’s life a challenge to theology?
He’s suffered no punishment for his foul craft.

Just where will Trump’s soul be at his eulogy?
Will some poet mourn him in an elegy? (2)
Will Christian supporters have sins to confess?
What will be Trump sycophants’ new strategy?

When Peter examines him, will Trump express
Regret for his actions and his selfishness?
Is there any chance Donald Trump might repent?
What else might Saint Peter ask Trump to address?

Does hell have a new place where Trump might be sent?
A place for a narcissist’s constant torment?
Yes, empty space, nothing, where he’d be alone,
No one anywhere to hear him boast or groan. (3)

(1) His reported take on the crypto grift is 2.2 billion. Qatar gave Trump a
747-8, which Trump wants to use as a new Air Force One because he thinks
it is more impressive to look at.
(2) One might reread Thomas Gray’s “Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard,”
(1751) for an example of the typical tone of an elegy.
(3) This part of hell was not covered in Dante’s “Inferno.” It came to me in a
dream. Dante put corrupt politicians in his eighth circle. Review how these
miscreants were punished in the fourteenth century Italian mind.
