We the People need to accept our responsibility again. We are the government who are represented by Washington. That's how it's supposed to work

Hello the House and Senate
By Franklin Price
10/21/2016

Hello the House and Senate
Democrat, Republican
To all of you in Washington
Every elected woman, man

To incumbents in position
I would like to have a word
I believe from We the People
The inconvenient useless herd

You act as if you're royalty
Ascension put you in that place
I hope you see that isn't true
Your hint; the presidential race

Whether we were right or wrong
We the People brought the Trump
If elected he may bring great things
Or take us to the dump

It's something that the people did
For you blocked him every way
Even his own party said
He wasn't qualified to play

I hope that he's elected
Then maybe you will face 
That we're tired of the establishment
Believe you are a big disgrace

If he doesn't make it
Because you've slandered him at will
Be advised that we the people
Will work to get you off the hill

We're here to take our country back
It's not only for the rich
Work for us, or we'll vote you out
And show you  life can be a *****

Replace your throne with office chair
Put yourself behind the plow
Your welcome to be there for us
Or we'll vote you out, we vow

I love this, Franklin! A fantastic message to our inept, "privileged" government leaders. Well said! Love, Kim
