Any Don But (Past)

I’ll support an assortment 

of Dons – just not Drumpf. 
Defunct actor Ameche...? Why 

not!
Donald Byrd, trumpet preacher...?
Donn, "Comber de Beach”...? Sure!
Run by me each Donald you’ve 

got!

     * Restauranteur Donn Beach,
known as 'Don the Beachcomber.'

Don Cheadle the humanitarian...?
Great!
Ditto Crisp and DeLillo and 

Duck! 
I'm for Drysdale (yeah, really!),
for Fagen the Steely
and Draper – I don't give a 

f**k!

I’m for Ho the Hawaiian
and Henley the Eagle.
(Mysogynist Imus...? I'm 

torn!)
But Don Knotts and Don King
and Don Mattingly...? Regal!
I’ll come and blow any Don's 

horn. 

I refuse to admire
Father Donald McGuire*
around whom no one's children live 

safe.
I say "No!" to all priests
Who molest (they are beasts);
"Yes!" to Dondi the comic strip
waif.

     * Now-jailed pederast Jesuit
supported by Mother Theresa.

 
Don Pardo, Don Pleasance!
O'Connor, McLean!
Even Rickles and Rumsfeld I'd 

buy.
As I said, I'll support
any Donald but Drumpf.
and I’m sure you don’t need to ask 

why.

With Sterling the racist
one needs to take pause:
the man’s lacking in principl’d
umph.
But I'd Shula endorse.
Donald Sutherland...? 'Course!
I'm for ANY damn Donald…but 

Drumpf.
