The Charge of Trump's Laugh Brigade

(Dedicated to Steve Bannon and his supporters and their New "War" Against the Opponents of President Donald J. Trump)

By Lolo Bobby M. Reyes

(With apologies to Alfred Lord Tennyson, 1809 - 1892)

Half a laugh, half a laugh,
Half a laugh onward,
All in the valley of Don
Rode the six hundred.
"Neo-Nazi's Laugh Brigade!
Charge for the old!” he said:
Into the valley of Don
Rode the six hundred.
“Forward, the Laugh Brigade!”
Was there a man dismay’d?
Not tho’ the Nazi knew,
Some one had blunder’d:
Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to do and dye:
To orange hair like Don's
Rode the six hundred.
Bannon to right of them,
Bannon to left of them,
Bannon in front of them
Volley’d and thunder’d;
Shouting the "Heil Hateler",
Boldly they rode and well,
Into the lows of Don,
To shouts of Heil Hateler
Rode the six hundred.
Flash’d all their lanterns bare,
Flash’d as they turn’d in air
Laughing they travel there,
Charging the people, while
All the world wonder’d:
Plunged in the battery-smoke
Right thro’ the line they broke;
Like Trump and the Russians
Reel’d from their foes' strike
Shatter’d and sunder’d.
Then they walked back, but not
Not the six hundred.
Bannon to right of them,
Bannon to left of them,
Bannon behind them
Volley’d and thunder’d;
Storm’d at with shout and shell,
While sh_t and wigs fell,
They that had laughed so well
Came thro’ the lows of Don,
Shouting the ""Heil Hateler",
All that was left of them,
Left of six hundred.
When can their jeans fade?
O the fake charge they made!
All the world wonder’d,
Laugh at the charge made!
Oh, oh, the Laugh Brigade,
Neo-Nazi's six hundred!
