Notes About The Poem

Neither side quits. We the people should force them to quit by voting them out. we must make this idiocy to end.

A Never Ending Travesty

A Never Ending Travesty
By Franklin Price
2/4/2018

It's a never ending travesty 
A  political burlesque
A show we should not  have to watch
Of  fools performing arabesque

Intricate illusions 
That distract our view away
So the politico in Washington 
Can make positions pay

The largest and most intricate
Is against the POTUS Trump
His ideas all are ludicrous
Despite the country's bump

More people now are working
We have terror on the run
The economy is thriving
The tax cut has been fun

There's been no recognition
Nor any help across the aisle
Their finger pointing's humorous
Even makes the Queen's guard smile

The Russians with technology
Helped Trump to win the race
Now it seems as though a memo
Is bringing democrats disgrace

If we check a little more
About the FISA law dominion
Seems Nunes did not read the docs
Before he memoed his opinion 

So illusions still continue
Seems there is no honesty
Both parties telling lies on each
To never end this travesty

Franklin, A politician is a person who stands for what he/she thinks the people will fall for.
