Mark Hughes Poet Narrative

Partisan Politics

As a person of lay,
I do watch in dismay.
All these government rubes,
look like fools on our tubes.

Playing silly games,
as you try and bring the shame,
upon this President Trump
voted in by us "chumps".

No respect for his position,
wasting time, an inquisition.

So you try to apply
allegations and lies,
to behavior they say,
was in a criminal way.

We are all quite aware
from the partisan glares,
your positions, ivory towers,
just a ploy to regain power.

From before the swearing in,
you can't stand that he did win.
So you bore us, day by day,
with these stupid games you play.

Well,
you should all hang heads ashamed,
for it's our country, that you've defamed!

Duke Beaufort February 7, 2024 at 9:30 AM I have to wonder...do you think he won the 2020 election? If not, then isn't it disrupting our system to assert the election was stolen? There's a possibility we could lose our democracy. There's plenty to worry about on both sides. I do enjoy your poetry and will be back to read more. Mark Hughes February 7, 2024 at 10:08 AM I think there are serious issues occurring in this country with our systems, justice, voting, media, it is distressing to me! To answer your question, I would not have the audacity to assume I have the answer to whether Trump won or lost the 2020 election. It's bad enough, to have to wonder about election integrity! How embarrassing the impeachment proceedings was for our country!
