#4 E-lek-toral Pomp

At leapfrogging time in the swamp
There's glomping galore! What a romp!
There's grabbing of... taxes
And scratching of... backs
As some talk of a pump, a la Trump,
Or development deals for a dump
To be paid for someday by the chump
Standing stolidly there on that stump.

#5 And speaking of imperial monuments...

A stoic might smile at Rome twilit
As purple pales swiftly to violet
And up pops the son:
"Dad, you had a good run...
But I'm flushing this dump down the toilet."

#6 Or brazen statues...

Give ne your tired, your poor, your sick!
Beside the door I'll flick my Bic.
They'll cut my chicken, learn a trick,
Y be latinx, nunca spic...
Unless of course they think or grump
Or vote for Comandante Trump.

#7 Or rose-coloured glasses...

A niƱa sat, folding a kleenex:
"I make a strange bird, the latinx!"
A sad origami,
So bad that her mami
Might burn it, releasing a phoenix.

#8 Or birthdays...

"Well, Al -- mind me calling ya Al? --
You sure were a helluva pal!"
[fat hands squeezing icing:
For Slicing & Dicing!]
"Why, thank you, dear friend... and I shall."
