Notes About The Poem

It would be nice if Congress, both parties, and both houses, would start honoring their oath to the Constitution and not exploiting it. The Constitution is the law of the land. It is not a party member.

 

Impeachment Now Moves To the Senate

Impeachment Now Moves to the Senate
By Franklin Price
12/19/2019

Impeachment now moves to the Senate
Nancy wants to come along
To control the people in it
Have them sing the House's song

Fair is fair and right is right
The Senate now presides
The House no longer has a say
Has already taken sides.

Impeachment for them said and done
In  history written down
They voted Trump to ride the rail
On the first train out of town

Republicans have the Senate
Have the votes that are required
Unlike the left side Democrats
Will not tell the Trump, “You're Fired!” 

Things may have turned out differently
If  Democrats were smart
And when they lost the presidency
Had not taken it to heart

Had not spoken of impeachment
Before Trump's oath was even said
Had gotten the unfairness
Of the college from their head

Waited for a real High Crime
And /or a Misdemeanor too
Not starting out from nothing
To make nothing stick like glue

Whether Trump is innocent
Or whether he is not
When the Senate finds not guilty
The left will stir again the pot

Not much consideration
For the Constitution's voice
When voting in November
We the People make the choice
