All Trumped Up

Paisan

Past fifteen years
Driving by
Neighbor's house
Pasquale's
Met him once
Stopped to admire
His passion for
Marigolds
Bursting beds
Reminded me of
East Boston backyards
Grapevines on pipes
Fig trees buried
In the winter
But Goombah
How could you
Giant Trump sign
Abhorrent aberration
Poison ivy
In flower beds
Polluting the hood
Skunk cabbage
Knife in my heart
Donald puts a
Hit on America
An offer
We can refuse
