Please take MEGALOMANIAC, a poem I wrote, and have a friend record on a cell phone as you and your friends sing it at karaoke to the song Maniac by Michael Sembello. Post it on youtube and Facebook with the title "Megalomaniac" and describe it as a protest song against Donald Trump. Please state in your posting that Megalomaniac was written by Diane Kaufman, MD. Please tag me to your post. If enough people do this, the poem's message will gain national attention in the media and could influence how people vote. Here's the poem/song lyric:
MEGALOMANIAC
Just a pompous blowhard looking to be the President
This is so totally crazy, better wake up to reality USA
Spouting hate as if it were love notes, turning compassion into ridicule
Corrupting greatness into exclusion and domination, he's so insecure
Denying mockery, deception and lies, he's masquerading as God’s truth
While we're on the precipice between integrity and living his nightmare
He’s a megalomaniac presidential candidate, venting fear, anger and diatribe
And he’s lighting a match to our country, saying we have no choice, why should he care
There’s a moment in time when you must rise up and stand tall
Can’t remain ignorant, hopeless, and blind against raging tides of arrogance
You may have lived your life small, but now you must live strong
Or this opportunity to save our future will pass you by
He’ll promise you the moon and the stars, the heavens, too
Don’t be fooled and bedazzled by his hyperbolic hypocrisy
He’s a megalomaniac, a maniac buying up real estate, to build another tower
How can we elect a President who has no shame and wears no clothes
He’s a ticking time bomb ready to explode
He’s a maniac, an ego maniac who wants to steal your vote
A maniac, a megalomaniac whose desire is to be President
From his penthouse view he’ll be safe, while America’s spirit implodes
He’s a maniac, a megalomaniac lusting at the presidential polls
America, if you want to survive, you better open your eyes
Don’t let apathy stop you from seeing what you know to be true
He’s a maniac, a megalomaniac, whose narcissism makes him unfit
To uphold truth from lies, he’s a danger to our country and the world
He’s a maniac, an ego maniac, a megalomaniac
America remember who you are and all you can be
Cast your vote for sanity and our country
See the megalomaniac for what he truly is
Just a pompous blowhard looking to be the President
He’s a maniac, an ego maniac, a megalomaniac...
