“Chef Trump’s ‘Hot’ Cuisine”
“Vengeance is mine,” so sayeth The Lord.
Our Lord Donald Trump uses, not a sword,
But slicing words to mutilate,
To flay the pride from a “reprobate.”
The firings that he hints his flunkies make
Are akin to burning at the stake.
.
Vengeance, revenge, retribution —
Do they appear in our Constitution?
In Trump’s Constitution they do,
Near the beginning, as Item Two:
“They hit me once, I hit back harder!”
Sharp things hang in his weapons larder.
Trump has re-translated “Quid quo pro”
As “you mess with me and out you go!”
Thus “things can happen” to an ingrate
Before Trump’s lust for revenge does sate.
Some dishes are best served cold, some not.
For Head Chef Trump — it’s piping hot!
