November Chapbook Challenge Day 17: A Plea II

 Today's prompt from Robert Lee Brewer: Write a "mean" and/or "nice" poem. With the current political situation and the pandemic starting to rage out of control, it's hard not to write topical poems. When I think of "mean", my first thought is of a certain person, so today's poem is addressed to him.


A Plea
 
extract
yourself from
your office bunker
 
stop
sulking like
a three-year-old child
 
virus
is rampant
inside we hunker
 
you're
having tantrums
delusions run wild
 
please stop lying -
we're all dying
