Chuck it, Tucker Carlson

Paul Turner

Sonny is loopy and throwing nuts against the mural wall

Momma’s hiding under the lawn chair

with a stiff drink

Daughter’s over scrambled eggs

And smoking something at the Formica table

Granny’s out of joint, enjoying doobies at poolside

No spanking, no angry minimal Dad energized early evenings

Try Panko crumbs with fish fry tonight

Carlson’s just giddy on the hustings

Imagining belt whippings in his febrile mind

Not pried from a privileged youth.
