It’s, Like, Incredible
He loomed like a reckoning
students looked the other way
I can take your lunch money, he said
and you can’t stop me
He grabbed her crotch
looked her in the eye
I can take your body, he said
and you won’t stop me
He pointed his finger like a gun
pulled the trigger at the camera
I could shoot you on 5th Avenue, he said
and I wouldn’t lose a vote

I like how your title works against the poem while capturing the speech pattern of the age group.
“It’s, like, incredible” are the words of the man himself, right after bragging he could shoot someone and his followers would still follow.
Poetry of protest! Right on. Or should that be “write on!”
We’re not protesting enough, I fear.
Whoa! Love this, Mike!! The title is perfect!
Actually his own words, spoken right after his famous statement about killing someone and losing no votes
