Catsup

Michael Helsem

July 1, 2022

And did those tiny hands conspire

To wrestle the Constitution down?

To spatter the walls with catsup spurned

Or blood that just might have to be spilled?

Bring me my box of launch codes quick!

Bring me the latest Tucker screed!

That steering wheel I’ll have to grab

Though never before have I driven.

If Pence won’t do what I demand

Pence is hist’ry & must go.

Bring me my reddest red tie now!

Bring me that shadow over there!

I said that shadow over there!!

Michael Helsem was born in 1958. Shortly afterward, fish fell from the sky.
