We need Washington representatives who are there for the people, not the party.

I do not Offer Gratitude By Franklin Price 4/4/2017 I do not offer gratitude For Congress that is crass and crude Here for the people they allude Elephant and Ass with attitude Fill seats with much ineptitude With party lines they are imbued Not offering much latitude They're inconsiderate and rude Spout speech with boring platitude Careless words from mouths exude Politically the truth elude As the storied king not clothed but nude

Very nice write Franklin. This is the kind of poem that scares people that wear blinders, (tunnel vision goggles). :)

Thanks Pete. It may scare people that wear blinders, but will they take them off after reading it?
