TACO

Leopards never change their spots

It’s true

No matter where or who

Genetically determined, lasting, eternal

It’s natural, it’s normal


Huge egos and delusions

Rosettes on their skin…illusions

Huge personalities

The alphas and omegas

It’s beginning to sound like MAGAs


It’s dangerous and hostile in this jungle

You’ll hear them scream and mumble

The greatest cats in the world

Don’t believe what you are being told


No other animal is welcome in these trees

They’ll break you down, on your knees

Their mind is stale, bigoted

It rots

Leopards never change their spots
