Did you see signs by victims of 
One Big Beautiful Bank Job
Showing up in mighty millions, 
Flexing Power Of The People?

Did you see frightened juvenile, AI-generated content —
In response?
Did you see the fecal FĂŒhrer’s fascist flight of fancy — the
Diapered dictator dropping dreck, Making America Grate Again?

Did you see them go from Government Shutdown 
To government shit-down — lousy, loose stool 
Luftwaffe flooding the Zone with elephant excrement —
Making America Grate Again?

Did you see power of the numerically mighty People
Scare fascists shitless — into fertilizing
New crops of activists, militants and revolutionaries
Growing robust — exponentially — and urgently!
