Morning After

Race over now: Blue makes way then, Red gains somehow, New mandate hence. The vote is in: Flair in odd choice, A new glyph seen, Triumph of mad poise. Wary world sees: Markets on edge, Stakes falling free, On dangling ledge. Sense the divide: Mind-boggling stars, Watch scary slide, Tattoo strokes far. Cheer takes a trip: So far away, Reason fails grip, Dead logic slays. Pieces of eight: Parrots old fear, Dread in gold plaids, This much paid clear. The people's choice: Loud murmurs steal, Stance in grave voice, Art of the deal. Awe strides with shock: Tinge of regret, Hurl lock and stock, Pluck tit-for-tat. Alarm bells ring: Dance of new trance, Karma can swing, Glimpse hawkish prance. Leon Enriquez 09 November 2016 Singapore
