Poem
Jimmy Kimmel talked about his son who was born with a heart disease. Representative John Vaso voted against Affordable Care act that would have supported a woman with a brain tumor. People on a retired fixed income are having a hard time keeping up with the increases in health insurance. I wrote these poems after thinking about this. Pains In Health Plan Our Congress members on are concentrating; Pains in health plan they can be creating; Bill not ever read, Or have heard said; What took place was plenty of prevaricating. From us health benefits will want to rob, By someone with big mouth or a fat slob; From where I sit, Are dumb dimwit, And hope next election will lose their job. There are things that we must confess; Health Care plan has become a big mess; Think of self only; Leaving us lonely, We are under duress causing so much stress. Congress is not nice, courteous or ever kind; Never leaving us with any peace of mind; Sold us short; Lent no support; Even took advantage of deaf, dumb and blind. All politicians we should learn how to avoid Making all of us annoyed as well as paranoid; Sure are sarcastic; Doing things drastic; Should flush them down toilet like a big void. Constituents are being taking advantage of, And with us won't share any of their love; What's wrong with them? Made our lives look grim; So we have to pray to God in heaven above. They never treat is like one of their own, And soup given to us only had a big bone; Pain in know where; Not treat with care; What they know nothing about leave alone. What Congress really needs is to be officiated, So that things will be successfully legislated; Goals be met; Not fool around or fret; Or a successor to them will be contemplated. James Serious Mysterious Horn Retired Veteran and Poet PS. Which one do you like the best?
