Notes About The Poem

A Big Blunder lies in wait for politicians every time they do or say something. 

As long as it is nothing too serious, the electorate can smile happily.

A Big Blunder

Rumours and gossip cause us to wonder
about the threat of a great big blunder,
appearing to threaten you and me
and it is as strange as strange can be.

A Blunder is so tall and hairy,
more than that, he is rather scary
often heralding some disaster,
in which line he is the Master.

A great Big Blunder is the friend
of politicians to the end.
In public life, Big Blunders seem
empowered to achieve their dream
and mark the candidate for fun.

So after all is said and done
pomposity will be defused
leaving the voters most amused.

So watch for Blunders every day
and praise their antics while you may,
for they won't be here for long I suspect
because they're Politically Incorrect!
