“Wine, a constant proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy” (-Benjamin Franklin).
In that same vein…
“Donald ‘J for Jackass’ Trump as president-elect of the largest imperial-colonial-settler-state in world history is proof that God does not exist (-Drab Boaster).
Hence, have thy pithy Advent laments:
Psalm 8:of November
How long, O LORD will you forget where you put your keys and spend the day looking for them while you should have been changing your people's hearts and minds from voting for a fascist monster. Dammit dude, they were between the couch cushions THE WHOLE TIME.
Psalm 13: nil
Consider and answer me, O Lord my God, forsooth Thou punish us for the decades of legalized abortion by putting someone in charge who should have been one?
Hail Mary
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for me, a sinner that dehumanizes Donald Trump, now and at the making of unpardonable abortion jokes. Amen
Kyrie
Lord have mercy, Christ have Mercy, Lord have mercy on we feminists who think that it is okay to criticize Melania Trump for taking pride in her own body and having agency over it.
Luke 18: nae nae
God, I thank you, that I am not as other men are, extortionists, unjust, adulterers, or even as that wretched Donald Trump.

Drab is a champion of what he calls, social justice burlesque. A satirical strip tease of the underlying consternation of a so-called civil society. Drab invites the reader to explore the American Civil Religion, in all its forms, as a source for solutions to incongruous social problems. Is it brilliant satire, or well-crafted humor? Probably neither
