Idiotamic Expression
Alas, looks like some folks are plain lucky
going to the top just on sheer ability to talk
without doing time building up character
through real experience and hard work.
Reliant on gobbledygooks and catchalls,
he runs for office using his special lingo,
though hardly offering a sensible platform,
yet, still confident it all will turn out bingo!
Bereft of workable ideas to offer the nation,
hope is what we need, is all he could say;
there is nothing there but naked ambition,
a sorry substitute for lack of actual policy.
Aren’t we taken for a ride and so gullible?
falling for the tricks of that messianic fool;
so full of himself the man eyeing election,
living off his idiotamic expression!
