Cancelling-Cancelling

Lockdown.
Long lines at McDonald's and Home Depot.
Politicians +big pharma getting cozy, COVID rich.
While thinning out the Christian crowd.
Mask on, mask off, mask on, mask off.
Kamala's bobbing at the border.
What the H happened to law and order.
  
Uncle Joe is a pastel in the rain.
At the drop of another career thug's whim.
Summer cities will burn again and again.

Cancel this- cancel that -cancel-cancel-cancel!
Cancel both the bitter and sweet.
Cancelling a million viable dreams.
Wish they would cancel violence or cancer.
Unbridled violence-fentanyl-child trafficking,
Wish they would cancel, cancelling.
