The Price Is Right

by Scott Thomas Outlar / July 3rd, 2016

If I had to construct
the perfect Beast
to represent
everything I find offensive,
loathsome, corrupt, crooked,
decadent, disgusting,
despicable, atrocious, foul,
ugly, rotten, slimy,
wicked, deceitful,
and downright deplorable
about the criminally operated,
mafia controlled,
bloated, bureaucratic,
hierarchical, elitist,
federally orchestrated
system of American government,
I’d just call up
the head of the DNC
and ask if they
could send over Hillary
to model for the day.
Hell, I know
for a fact
she’d jump at the offer
so long as
Beijing or Saudi Arabia
was footing the bill
and it was promised
that all records
of our meeting
would be promptly deleted
in the wake.
