Politics
Caustic fears,
Campaign smears,
A candidate faking tears.
Spewing lies,
Employing spies,
No one willing to compromise.
Platforms,
Reforms,
Recruiting in college dorms.
She’s a bore,
He’s at war,
No one knows what we’re fighting for.
Take a stand,
Shake a hand,
Spreading rumors about the man.
Red states
Blue states
Pregnant chads in debate.
Filibust,
Loosing trust,
Does anyone really care about us?
Socialized,
Criticized,
Citizens are polarized.
Impeached,
A promise breached,
Nice lessons for us to teach.
Pass the hat,
Diplomat,
Why didn’t I think of that?
Politicians,
Full of sins,
In the end, who really wins?
