Poem Title:
Poem
We have the left; we have the right. In the political arena they both fight. Always claiming to be on our side, With ferocious rhetoric, opponents they deride. Vote for us, to be saved from a vicious clan’s Reckless and dangerous life ending plan. So now it’s up to you and I To decide, who is right and who tells lies. Now I don’t know what works for you. I judge not what they say; rather what they do. For talk is cheap and taxes ain’t. I’m in support of fiscal restraint. Now this is a fact for all posterity; A nation can’t spend itself into prosperity. Both sides know that this is true. But look at what the charlatans do. They simply make a language adjustment; Government spending renamed as investment. So now it’s up to you and I To decide, who is right and who tells lies. The finger of accusation is pointed; As our nation becomes disjointed. Now both sides in self-righteousness claim; The other side is the one to blame. I’m not sure how you deduce, But I look at the fruit they produce. Who supports phony investigations; The sole evidence of their own making. Who supports keeping people in places; Dividing them up into different races. Who believes they can legislate prosperity; Ignoring all of human history. Who believes it a proper choice; To slay the unborn who have no voice. So now it’s up to you and I To decide, who is right and who tells lies. Media acts in a partisan manner, Thus, I ignore their constant clamor. People throwing bombs and firing weapons; The very definition of insurrection. When people gather to show disgust. That is what is defined as a protest. There are few neutral voices. Everyone is always spinning choices. So now it’s up to you and I To decide, who is right and who tells lies.
