    About this ebook

    Poetry that resists bigly!

    This is a collection of poems written in real time during the first two years of the Trump administration to make you think, laugh, or cry—sometimes all at the same time.

    With a presidency rewriting the norms of the White House with antics defying decorum, convention, and kindness, these seriously funny, timely, beautifully observed poems reflect the suspended disbelief of onlookers around the world.

    Beginning with the title poem that celebrates the millions who gathered and marched during the weekend of Trump’s inauguration, this collection also touches on the climate change crisis, transgender injustice, covfefe, relentless tweeting, and other key moments that characterize the Trump administration.

      My mother, always my greatest critic, believed when I was 15 that by the age of 18 I would be hung. Not by some ruffians but by the state, by the men in dark, dark blue uniforms who would crowd round me before my swinging, and make sure that I was ma
