Notes About The Poem

Evidently appointments to the Supreme Court bring out the worst and the dirtiest in our Washington politicians. I hope that this idiocy will help people make smarter decisions at the polls. in November or at early voting.

Politics Is Not Our Lives

Politics is not Our Lives
By Franklin Price
9/29/2018

Politics is not our lives
Nor should it ever be
When we follow those who think it is
What we've got is what we see

If those we've seen the past few days
Are the best we've put in place
Maybe we should stay at home
And not show our voting face

If they represent the best we have
Then we better just rethink
Have founders turning in their graves
And they're driving me to drink
