Casting Obama
They contrive an upheaval
Of a non-existing character -
For character assassination,
They create a bobble-head that
Looks like him
On an empty chair,
They publish his alien
Birth place that
Never was,
They call him a crooked socialist who
Saves banks and Wall Street,
A job killer who rescues GM,
A terrorist sympathizer who kills Osama,
They knot him, stitch him,
Loop him, bounce him
On a trampoline
They shape him as
An actor in their private movie,
Authenticating their own aspersions.
