Homophone poem

2023 April PAD Challenge: Day 8

With every word
The former president
Causes a tear
In the basic fundamental
Political order

Leading to many people
To tear up
In fear

Which is no doubt the object
His followers do not object
To inflict pain and suffering
In their endless quest

To own their hated enemies
The radical left Marxist radical
Demonic Deep state libtards

Who is conspiring to turn
America into another communist
Dystopian nightmare

Only the great leader Trump
Can save America's Democracy]

Write a poem every day of April with the 2023 April Poem-A-Day Challenge. For today's prompt, write a homograph poem.

Somehow we're already starting on the second week of this challenge. Let's keep poeming!
For today's prompt, write a homograph poem. Homographs are words that are spelled the same but have different meanings. Sometimes they are pronounced the same, but that's not always the case. Click here to find a list of homographs, though there are many more homographs than these to use.
5 Homographs With Different Pronunciations
1. Attribute (characteristic) or attribute (credit someone or something)
2. Bass (fish) or bass (drum)
3. Bow (weapon) or bow (down)
4. Close (near) or close (to shut)
5. Console (comfort) or console (video game unit)
6. Content (satisfied) or content (various media)
7. Lead (front) or lead (mineral)
8. Minute (small) or minute (measurement of time)
9. Object (thing) or object (argue)
10. Present (gift) or present (to bring forth)
11. Produce (create) or produce (fruits and veggies)
12. Subject (thing) or subject (to something)
13. Tear (rip) or tear (crying)
14. Wind (blows) or wind (to turn)
15. Wound (injury) or wound (past tense of wind)

Come at today's prompt as you will, but I think at a bare minimum, poets should choose at least one set of homographs to play with in their poems.
