The president says diplomacy
may have a “major, major conflict” [war]
(lots of majors, lots of gore)
with Koreans of the North.
As for Koreans of the South,
Trump says they owe us for the clout
of the new missile system “THAAD.”
Besides, our trade agreement’s bad
and we’re tired of being had
announced the president yesterday.
(THAAD costs one billion, by the way.)
And so the South is doubly screwed–
if it’s war, it’s theirs to lose.
And if it’s peace, the bill is due.
(If I were South Korea I’d
return the missiles, flee to China.
And then I’d send a bill to Trump
for any war that isn’t minor.
Not to add to the confusion
but Pentagon says nothin’ to it–
U.S. will pay or maybe will
renegotiate the bill.
South Koreans getting mad;
march with signs that simply say, “Hate THAAD.”
And so we’ve made a major, major mess
likely to get more major, not less.)
