Politicians

They are running for positions in government. 
What they say is full of embellishment. 
When they are receptive, 
their tactics are deceptive. 
Thank God their terms are not permanent.

Inspired by one of Kim's recent poems.

I really love this poem for it is so very true! I am very glad that there term is not permanent, but although the vast majority of them aren't worth much, there are those few that are worth keeping in office...but I can't name a one of them! Very awesome piece my friend, Great Work!!
