On a splendid day

In the nation that was great again

The homeless and jobless milled about hopelessly

As the sun shone sickly through the pollution

The ill and infirm 

Curled up in a cozy alley to die

While skinny stray dogs and cats

Chewed on the remains

Of those whose struggling families

Could not afford to bury them
