Great example of the form Harry and the message
though frightening to any thinking organism who
is not a Trump sycophant or a Congressional Republican,
says it all with both a grand poetic and expositive flair.
Happy New Year to you and to all those you love Harry. tom

Comment from Ms. Snyder
I read your Rondel as part of the contest entry line up. I agree with your message. I will be picking this one to win. Your title grabbed me and drew me to your poem to read first. Usually now I only read a couple when looking at a vote. In this particular contest I will read all the poems, but there is something here I not only agree with but the execution of the Rondel was spot on. There is a lot of talent here. Thank you for sharing your views and being so brave to speak up!

Comment from QC Poet
Though I agree way too much with the sentiment and appreciate the messaging in the poem, I'd be weary about censorship even for this particular President.
I also like the remembrance photo of Late Senator John McCain.
Please continue to write and I look forward to your upcoming postings.
Thank you for sharing this poem and Good Bless you and your family for sharing.

Thanks for the read and the comments. And most of all for the blessing.
Comment from Pantygynt
Well that has blown your chances for American poet laureate - at least for the foreseeable future. Between your country and mine (UK) we have managed to make a real mess of politics. One wonders where it will all end.
'His decision without counsel are too abrupt' - subject/verb number agreement. This needs a plural subject, 'decisions'.
