Granddaughters

As I write, I worry about your futures

cause aspirations of two women, queens to be,

lifted by money and the media it affords

seeping into the conscious of millions

overwhelmed by closets of red shoes

They may inherit the crown

Vegas bets so

Currently Donald Trump is president, the republican party has the majority in the House and Senate and the serfs are as screwed as ever. More than ever.
