It's not clear if the corpse belonged to Erato or Calliope, but alongside the body there was discovered a poem celebrating the inauguration of Donald J Trump, and it is... amazing.
Although the poet is not officially affiliated with the campaign, the encomium pays tribute to Trump's mother (neé MacLeod) and her birthplace on the Hebridean Isle of Lewis. Notable is its mention of the 44th POTUS as a "tyrant." At least there is fertile ground to be trod with Highlander references. [SL Independent]
