Hated Politicians
Hated Politicians
Angry people wrapped in hate
Justified, do not hesitate –
If vengeance becomes the mission,
Stop! Vote out the politician.
The world became an angry throng
Where love is short and life is long.
Politicians bought the blame.
Greedy spending wrought its fame.
Government has lost our trust.
Fists in pockets have been thrust.
Expectations evils…greet!
Politicians feel the heat.
Power hogs inflict controls,
While citizen hatred unfolds.
Conflicts grapple; minds entrap
Humanness begins to snap.
If a man decides to live,
He has to take the hurt, forgive.
When retreating from life’s pain.
Man must shake the hurt, to gain.
