I know a Donald that deserves a boa! Great gotcha touch.

Your concept is choice, the wording succinct and the form spot on.

Very nice!

God bless and my best,
Relda

    Thank you so much for your wonderful review and bonus, Susanne!! It's always gratifying when I can make such a good poet laugh - for me, the best compliment of all!

Is the Boa named "Hillary? This is well done and very subtle.You have presented this three-line poem well and chosen an appropriate picture to go with it.

    ;) Yes, if I do send him a boa I'll have her fit with a lacy bow imprinted "Hillary." A pants suit would be even better, but boas, you know....
    Thanks for your much appreciated review, RYME4U!

Ah...Ogden? If you mean the boa to eat Mr. Trump, your snake is a gourmand. Mr. Trump may, or may not, be a gourmet meal. Just thought you'd want to know. :) Nancy

    This is not a job for a gourmand. To ensure his eagerness for this meal, the boa, a card- carrying gourmet, has been misled to believe that said meal is the only one like it in existence. I regret having to deceive the snake, but it will be worth it to make so many humans happy.

Oh my God, what a horrific gift! My, what did Donald do to you? I love the irony of your word choice. This is an excellent entry for the contest. Good luck!
