Man In Charge

Man In Charge
							
		
How can we show respect that’s due,
To one so acutely in charge.
While supposing to work for you,
his agenda is groups at large.

Redistribution of wealth, Geeez.
He favors a socialist mode.
Plays the blame game can you believe.
Disagree then watch him explode.

I would not care to name this man,
Respect for his office is strong.
But abuse in this form we should ban.
Removing him would not be wrong.

Elect someone honest and true
One who needs no confirmation
Hypocrisy to me and you
Need be for elimination

I hear you, Charles. And while I haven't seen him "explode," I do feel betrayed by the promises he made when he asked for our votes. I think the recent senatorial election in Massachusetts shows people are not happy with his policies. He's likely to be limited to one term. You painted a very accurate picture with your powerful words. Best Wishes, Carolyn
