Notes About The Poem

If a friendship is lost due to political leanings, everyone loses and there is no one I know that has enough real friends.

 

Now You'Ve Gone and Done It

Now You've Gone and Done It
By Franklin Price
10/22/2017

Now you've gone and done it
Thought it could never be
That another one's opinion
Could have this effect on me

To be attacked by someone
One I don't even know
Has hit me like a big red brick
Dealt a depressing blow

Don't expect you to be sorry
It's apparent you don't care
Politics means more to you
Than any friendship there

Not open to discussion
It must always be your way
I've unfriended you on Facebook
In fact, I did it yesterday

Don't need you and people like you
Who have closed your heart and mind
Life's too short  to waste it
On people, like you, I find

As long as We the People
Are Me the People, such as you
There's  no middle of the road to reach
So I'll stop trying too

There, you finally have your way
One less to contend
You and people like you
Will finally make this country end
