One Moon Honeymoon

Smiles and hugs all around
  Champagne paints the town
President-elect waves with his Veep
  Campaign workers laugh and they weep

The Campaign basks in its glory
  Tonight's no time for inventory
But starting early tomorrow morning
  An angry America resumes warring

What I wouldn't give to see someone on the ballot who could put the 'united' back in United States. Alas, not this year. Good writing. That title really sticks with me. ~ Oscar the Grouch

Alas, Grouch, as you wrote -- Not this year! Maybe you'll offer your services to the nation in 2024. We can use a common sense leader in there. How about it? You have my full support! ~ Registered Voter

Thanks, Heidi. Where's a sensible, no-nonsense leader when we need one? -- Nowhere in sight, I guess. :) gw

Thanks, Abe (Lincoln). Where is the great uniter when he's needed? -- Not in either of these two candidates, that's for sure. :) gw
