Unfortunately,

CNN hosted

A Trump Town Hall

Where the haul

Was his.

He steered the show

With audience

Applause

And laughter

With him,

Not at him.

It was 

Trump shtick

That sticks,

Unfortunately.

Fortunately,

Despite what he

Spews,

E. Jean won her

Suit

And proved the power

Of Truth

Can still exist

And enlighten.

The female inner

Life is fortunately

Becoming realized

As valid

And worth

A fortune.

Unfortunately,

It is terrifyingly clear

That the bullying

And lying

And obfuscating

And grifting

Are disregarded

And even

Cheered as

Smart tactics

Regardless of 

Consequences. 

Fortunately,

The DOJ has

Increasing evidence

That we can 

Only hope

Makes its

Way to a

Courtroom

SOON.

Unfortunately,

The shamelessness

And immorality

And assaults

Continue full force

And we are 

Captive.

Fortunately,

Santos was arrested

As the House

Is tested

Negotiating

The debt ceiling

Sealing

Their brand

As unfortunately

Cynical 

And unserious

About bipartisanship.

Fortunately,

The Summer

Of Indictments

Is not 

Far away,

And I believe 

There are 

More of us

Who grieve

For the USA

Than for our

Individual

Selves.
