Poetry

Now I lay me down to blog
another Right Wing failure to flog
but it is is not so satsfying you see
their mistakes come with a heavy fee

and somehow the point of blame is lost
when the least of us must bear the cost
and watch our futures drift out to sea
to fill ambitious eyes in some other country

and weren't these the same oil brained folks
who cracked our heads like eggs and yolks
to make an omelette of a world of pain
and now they've gone and done it again

first New Orleans sunk beneath the sea
then they hanged old Saddam for our security
and the people who really brought towers down
make GOP campaign footage in turbins and frowns

and there we sit naked, befuddled, and not amused
its our own government got us feeling so abused
and now someone inflates bad mortgage debts
walks off with billions of dollars, no regrets

no... those are left for us to hold near broken hearts
where the sun don't shine, just like some other parts
of the anatomy my left foot would like to see
ohhh, don't let this Administration anywhere near me!

I'd forget about rhymes, and niceties
and remember old grey heads, salty seas
and how my only dearly beloved country
became a hog trough for the GOP

oh man...this election is getting to me!
