Please Stop!

I won’t give up,
but we can’t win by waving the devil’s face around.
Please stop!

Enough, already! Go do your yoga!
Your worrying is bringing everybody down.
We won't give up,

but it doesn't help
to fixate endlessly on that evil clown.
Please help me stop!

We have fair hopes
we’ll put that dude in the mad-dog pound
in a few days. I say I won’t give up,

but—listen to me—I’m making myself throw up!
Luckily, Joe Biden’s sunny dachshund
face will help us stop

making ourselves sick,
join hands, and take our trip around the sun
a few more times before our race gives up
the ghost and stops.
