A Political Machine Two Standards
A Political Machine
Two Standards

After laying out charges
the FBI suddenly flipped,
Now Lady Justice has had
her blindfold stripped.
Someone lent his opinion
on a two year old mystery,
A day now ordained
to be written in our history;
This day it was proven
you can be, too big to fail,
For a free pass was given
that have sent some to jail.
Delving into the past
I see a greedy politician,
Service wasn’t about country
but mostly about a mission.
The promise to minorities
and the poor was the same,
Mark the ballot for me
and you’ll get in the game.
The story given women
was you’re being abused,
And many didn’t see
that they were being used.
Untrue things were said
just to garner our vote,
With one hand on our wallet
the other on our throat.
Many votes will be garnered
due to promising free stuff,
No self serving Politician
would even dare to rebuff.
Their mirror reflects lying,
potty mouthed, boozers,
And that, according to many,
will paint these folks losers.
Being morally corrupt,
will be their legacy, and fame,
I hope they repent before
God whispers their name.
This family always play
by a different set of rules,
And those who can’t see that
are just plain fools.
