‘Apologies to John Fogerty’
Editor:
“Long in late November his reign was comin’ down. It seemed to catch us snorin’; how would we stop this clown? We knew there’d be phases and things that should be done. Yet I wonder, still I wonder who’ll stop his reign?
“He stormed up Virginia seekin’ changes to the norm. Caught up in his fable we’ve watched his power grow. Bible scams and shoe deals warped by his disdain. Yet I wonder, still I wonder who’ll stop his reign?
“Heard the pundits sayin’ how there would be more families pushed together tryin’ to keep warm. Still his reign keeps soarin’, callin’ up my fears, and I wonder, still I wonder, who’ll stop his reign?
“One thing to remember amidst the doom and gloom: Donald has just shown us how to make a protest bloom. When we march together, our voices will be heard. So don’t wonder, I don’t wonder: We’ll stop his reign.”
With apologies to John Fogerty,
Dan Brown, Fortuna
