Pregnant With Deceit

Their flashy words so rhetorical
Nothing new, just all historical
Words pregnant with deceit
Costumes mailed, in receipt
Unmasked, see... most are identical

For Carolyn's "Election Humor Contest"

A1 for this beautiful limerick and congratulations, Audrey for winning this. Very few we can meet nowadays a truly dedicated on their duty as a public servant, you hit them with your words that they are identical and their words monotonous and pregnant of full deceit. (^_^) Noel.

They aren't just nearly pregnant with deceit, they are full of it, hun Audrey? Same O same O, if we vote we'll need to figure who's the lesser of the two evils. Maybe! Agape, Moses
