Poem

Granite hearted politicians
tossing our lives and minds
onto election year bonfires.
Flicking tongues- fanning blazes
veiling their throbbing lies
building dead end mazes. 

"Fixing" problems of their own making...
slinging toxins without solutions
masking our voices with concoctions.
Forcing us to breathe in beltway pollution...
We the citizens turned into treadmill jesters
juggling dirty masks and happy pills
one swamp is drained while the other one fills...

Maggots writhing over star-spangled meat
do we untether the talon of revolution
no time to fall silent and retreat.
Maybe it's a time for reflection and prayer
to turn yet another rosy cheek...
Where are the Gandhis in our time of need
Where are the mother Teresas to cool the burning seed
What happened to our brave and selfless King?

Lift us up from this pit of self-pity and greed,
steer us gently onto the straight and narrow path
back into the golden hearted dream...at last.
