Politician Captured and Released

A local politico dropped by today,
To spread his vision along his way.
His view, to me, seemed a bit lacking.
I’ve seen his kind and results of their snacking
On what I’ve earned through time and work.
I’ve met only one who wasn’t a jerk,
So I shot him (with camera) and bid him farewell;
Where I left him behind I never will tell,
He shall not again be smearing this pane,
Nor did he ever feel his or my pain.
