Trump, In Verse

On a whim I voiced a scheme that’s generated such a scare – a
plan to remake Gaza as the Middle East’s new Riviera.
This is based on musings from my favorite son-in-law (that’s Jared),
leaving Palestinians, Israelis – and the world – quite scare-ed.

I’ll draw up some blueprints, also file the proper documents
to get construction started – then kick out the current occupants.
Who wouldn’t want to live amidst such luxury, with miles of beach?
The price for Palestinians who wish to buy-in? Out of reach.

Two million native settlers would – for a short while – be displaced.
When they return, their culture and their heritage would be erased.
Instead, they would be housed in ways I claim will be spectacular.
(To cater to the tourists, they’ll all learn a new vernacular.)

This brazen proclamation seemed spontaneous, half-baked, unplanned; it
caught advisors unawares – and even I don’t understand it.
U.S. soldiers not required, and Arab countries foot the bill –
like Mexico has paid us for that border wall (we’re waiting still).

How many world leaders have embraced this flight of fancy? Not too.
So far, it’s just me and Jared Kushner; also Netanyahu.
Why’d I choose this moment to announce the pitch, you may be wondering?
Just another ploy to shift attention off of Elon’s plundering.
