Politician Promises

There is a kitten for every pot
A pot for every pig
A pig for every poke
A kitten for every mitten

I was tired of this politician
What was he trying to do?
Did everyone want a pig?
Certainly not a pig in a poke

The kittens in the mittens were hanging behind him
Snug in their tight little mittens, hanging on a line
Rolling their eyes
As if to say
Do you believe this bimbo?

My politician told me the earth was round. Googled it just in case he was lying.

No! I don't believe any politician. They're all liars and maybe bimbos, too! LOL Caren. I love this.
