The Other Side

 

 

Always another side:

Can we agree on this?

Else there’s something fundamental

We have missed.

 

Two sides to a story;

At the very least

And of course, there is the truth

That can never cease.

 

In the prequel to this:

“Panic Setting In”,

I presented the Democrat’s side

In the midst of the din.

 

A tumult it was

As the Democrats reflected

On what was a colossal loss

They least expected.

 

The end of the world-

Democrats’ world at least,

For the mesmerizing Beauty

Was taken by the Beast.

 

 

 

In the Democrat’s view

But not Republicans;

No, this was a time for rejoicing

For all Trump fans.

 

Not the end of the world

But a beginning

And in the days and years ahead

They will be singing.

 

Illegal immigrants!

The border will be closed,

No longer will they come across

Unopposed.

 

And those now there

Will be deported

Of course, unless they can show

“Document supported”.

 

The wars will end:

At least Russia and Ukraine

And this action will be achieved

In Donald Trump’s name.

 

The economy will be fixed

As it was in twenty-sixteen,

After all, unlike the intervening years,

Trump is on the scene.

 

 

 

America will be great,

Greater than ever before

And all because Trump run things

The country will soar.

 

Soar like the eagle

High up in the air

Such that America’s enemies

Will tremble with fear.

 

None would dare oppose

Or contradict

And Trump will be supported

By poor and rich.

 

For power is right

And the right to enforce

All that is great for America

Of course!

 

Thus, the other side

Of the same coin, indeed,

And when the narrative unfolds,

Same channel same feed!

 

They know their own

And are known by them

And when in bed together

It’s not a problem.

 

The pawns will quarrel

And become concerned

Knowing as collateral damage

They will get burn. 

 

But the proverbial cat

Will land on its feet

Once President Donald Trump

Has the White House seat.

 

As in “Panic Setting In”

Let me again state

What has been my position

Long before here of late.

 

I am neither Republican

Nor Democrat

But just one trying to decipher

Between opinion and fact.
