Matthew Anish Poet Didactic

An Unrevised Poem About Politics

Poetry does not have to be political to be good
But verse can change people's hearts about things
political 
In the good old USA the Democrats and Republicans are gearing up for the big 
battle
In the land of Israel elections take place tomorrow
Other lands have relatively free elections as we
Who will win?
How much does it matter?  
"Happy Days are Here Again" is the song of 
the great FDR days
Write a song or poem for you candidates 
you people reading this out in the darkness
Poltics can be annoying 
but it is a part of life in which I take an intrest
Do you out there? 
Let me know what you think! 
Soon the Jewish New Year will come
And after the the secular New Year will take place
Whatver you think of the political scene out there 
I send along my best wishes

Andrea Dietrich September 17, 2019 at 4:58 PM I can't stand the politics in my state.It never changes here, so I am tempted not even to vote. If i knew how to write about politics, I would do it. It's just not my forte to write this way!! Good one, matt.

Panagiota Romios September 16, 2019 at 6:26 PM Poets scoot away from politics. I will never undertsne this. My POTD today is basically what you are saying. Right on! I know the Jewish New Year is coming up And the Feast of Booths and the Feast of Trumpets. I will soup mail you tomorrow. I wrote a poem on abortion. 175 reads. No comments, Matthew? 125,000 babies die before they are born. I am the one poet who cries for them. A tragedy..Panagiota. PS..that's 125,000 a day x 365 Kim Rodrigues September 20, 2019 at 7:23 PM I cry with you, Panagiota!
