Letter To Dc

It eludes me, the delusions and illusions touted on the news. The left, the right, the pseudo ruse, talkers converging to voice their own views. That desire for fame, fortune and power, the many who seek to hold that ivory tower; I'm content down here in the trenches but every word spoken in DC sours to make my stomach heave in wrenches. Most of us are watching, trusting you, trying to believe as we make our way thru life and time undeceived; we search for understanding, spiritual divine abstractions, the fire and the fury relieved, which we never seem to achieve. If you want to speak for me don't be a distraction be careful of what you say, not abstract detraction let be it factual - accurate, respectful, precise and tactful and senators, shame on you and your inaction. That presidential position is a gift and responsibility to us the people you should be our voice of sanity, be kind, be humble, down to earth, if you please, stop playing games of show and tell in our democracy for the sake of all humanity.
