Today's prompt from Robert Lee Brewer: Write an "exit" poem. I didn't want to get as political as I did this month, but it's almost impossible not to, with all the heat generated from a historically unique presidential election. particularly a clear loser who refuses to concede. I won't say more, or I'll rant for another hour. I'll just let my poem do the talking.
Exit Strategies
hot-air
balloon like
the Magnificent Oz
escape
tunnel to
your underground lair
donning
handcuffs, jumpsuit
for broken laws
granting
a self-pardon
(so very unfair)
whatever works, nemesis,
vacate the premises
