Go however you want, just GO!

In 1947 Dylan Thomas, dreading his father’s imminent death, wrote:

Do not go gentle into the good night,

Old age should burn and rave at close of day;

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Seventy years later most Americans are saying to donald trump;

We don’t really care how you go,

Just, please go!

We expect you’ll rage against the dying of your narcissistic light,

Rage all you want,

Just go into whatever perverted night your

Perverted mind creates.

Please, just go!

apologizes to Dylan Thomas
