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

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.
