Electoral Participation

When the monopoly game rings out Who stands stubborn pushing their clout? Where does reality bounce? On the chessboard of hope and change Taxes rearranged, fiat shuffling Help the sick and needy The court jester needs buffering I'm calling the foolhardy bluff That redistricts citizen electioneering The jibe is up Career politicians dancing with time While TV auctions stamp the mind We must participate In the creation of our own lives Hatchet the grid that chants otherwise
