Though Latin, it was not used by the ancient Romans.
It first appeared in a dissertation written by a German
scholar in 1689.
Modernly,
The term means oblivion: condemnation of memory,
It means ridding yourselves of the train wreck you
collectively experienced,
We’ve all been harassed and harangued in national trauma,
Corporately experiencing PTSD,
Moving On, moving forward from the shell shock of 2016,
His current Grift-o-Matic blender is putting us all through a
mini purée as he refuses to concede,
He’s raising more money in defeat than he ever did running,
When he was supposedly trying to WIN it,
Which is why his consigliere Michael Cohen said he never meant
it in 2016,
He’s following a script:
“Obama was born in Kenya,”
Not America,
"The system is rigged,"
Against the poor little Bizarro Ritchie Rich kid,
Who’s had a spoon shoved up his ass since birth,
When his father should have used a condom or his mother
swallowed,
Now it’s “send money NOW to the election defense fund,”
That doesn’t exist,
We'd like to say that about Rudy Guliani's flatulence,
He’s making the rubes pay his bills,
During a pandemic,
Nero fiddled; he’s tweeting and golfing.
The Georgia rally for Purdue and Loeffler,
I don’t go out on a limb predicting it a complete disaster,
As he tiptoes the minefield of his own creation:
The system “is rigged” against him,
I didn’t lose the 2020 election,
Vote for Pooh-bah, and what’s her name in the June 5th
runoffs,
After an hour-and-forty-five minutes riff, he gave them two
(The same strategy worked REALLY well for Arizona’s Martha
McSally),
As their brief political careers go down in flames,
And they rightly face legal hearings,
On selling their stocks after Coronavirus briefings,
Investing in stay-at-home software for Zoom, and Skype
meetings,
Rather than briefing their Georgia constituents on what was
coming,
They want to be in the rehire line for doing NOTHING!
Damnatio Memoriae,
Condemnation of memory,
Of HIM, personally,
Do not forget his negligence during a pandemic,
Do not forget his criminal malfeasance,
Do not forget his violation of emoluments,
Do not forget his violence to The Constitution,
Do not forget stocks traded on tragedy to the enrichment of
Purdue and Loeffler,
Do not forget to vote them out in the JANUARY primary runoffs,
Do not forget the 275,000+ Americans that won’t be with us
this Hannukah, Christmas, Yuletide, Solstice,
But Orange Satan, personally: forget him.
Give the narcissist after January 20th at noon a fate worse
than death: condemn his vile memory to oblivion.
