Mary Todd did marry
Lincoln's lover, Lincoln's wife
The House it was divided
Filled with frequent strife
When the conspiracy came to **** him
In a theater named for Ford
He had done his noble duty
Emancipating true justice of the Lord
I visited his boyhood home
I write poems in private pages
He lives on in grateful hearts
He still belongs to the ages
When I ask him what to do
And my mind on him is thinkin'
He counsels, "denounce this hate-filled idiot
Donald Trump, and marry, Todd" - Lincoln

- Todd Witherell
This is the poem I put in front of a Madonna and Child statue
at Georgetown University which the Secret Service came to discuss with me a couple years ago.
