Halloween costume
keep in mind
that friendly parody of a public figure
often makes for a memorable
and easily-acquired outfit.
With Donald Trump
if he has said anything that is true
it's that what you see
is truly what you get
and a real parody of him
as Saturday Night Live has proven
is impossible
as there is no room
between the grotesque exaggeration
and the reality of him.
(And that's scary!)
