Dreading November

Dreading November


Sam Johnson was terrified
Of November
Dreading the coming
Of November.

Recalling big events
That occurred in November
The Bolshevik Revolution in Russia
The Fall of the Berlin Wall.

The Assassination of John F Kennedy
The election of George W Bush
The Election of Obama
The Election of Trump.

And the potential that Trump
Could be re-elected
Which terrified him.

He was terrified
That if Trump were elected
He would end up in a camp
Due to his political activities.

He hoped that the election
Would end with Kamala Harris
Elected

But was prepared
To end up in the camps
For the Jews always
Ended up in the camps.
