Eric and Sheep

November 6, 2020

James Thornton riffs a poem from today’s headlines

In Torrent of Falsehoods Trump Claims Election is Being Stolen

“Where are Republicans!” Eric Trump added about an hour and a half later. “Have some backbone. Fight against this fraud. Our voters will never forget you if your sheep!”

-–New York Times, 6 November 2020

If your sheep don’t lift a finger

If your sheep don’t baa for dad

If your sheep don’t buy Ivanka’s clothes

If your sheep don’t stay in dad’s hotels

If your sheep don’t attack Democrats

If your sheep don’t vote twice for dad

If your sheep don’t get out on the streets

If your sheep don’t hold Biden hostage

If your sheep don’t deliver the election

Our voters will never forget you if your sheep!
