PAD Day 19: Like an Alphabet in Reverse

Today's dual prompts from Poetic Asides and NaPoWriMo: (1) Write a "license" poem, and (2) write an abecedarian (a poem whose lines use the alphabet in order). There are different types of abecedarians - the "classic" one uses just one word per line that starts with each letter in order from A. This one I wrote is a "reverse abecedarian", and the order is part of the theme. Note I didn't adhere strictly to the classic one-word-per-line rule. Again, apologies for getting political (sorry, not sorry):

Zero Tolerance

You

xenophobic

wall-building

violence-inciting

unrepentant

tyrant,

systematically

revoking

quintessential

policies,

ostracizing the "other",

normalizing

mendacity with a

license to

kill dreams,

justifying

immigrants

housed in cages,

glorifying

family separation,

egregiously

direct our

country

backward, like

an alphabet in reverse.
