Is there an honest politician in this world?

Isn't it ditty, and isn't it a pity To hear their political cries They're not, very witty...and they're not, very pretty All dressed, in their suitcoats and ties Let's all be gritty, and hold a committee Let's try, to make those naïve people...realize "Not" to add, to the kitty...in their state, or their city If they know, that's it's nothing...but lies Now I might seem a little gitty, just a little bitty But I've crossed all my T's...and dotted my I's I wrote up a chitty...That was a bitsy itty That just might bring, all the politicians...down to size Rhyme Battle XII Poetry Contest Sponsor: Juli-Michele 1/17/2019

G'day Charles … if they hang a politician for telling the truth then they've killed an innocent person, but we just keep voting them in - your poem is a fun read - thank you Charles - Lindsay

Hi Charles, a very witty poem. As far as politicians go, I don't think they know how to tell the truth. They should be brought down to size. Love the flow, the rhyme and the content of this write. Wouldn't it be something if they would listen to the people they represent and not just looking to their own agenda? Wonderful write my friend. Have a wonderful Saturday....Mike.

I truly would not mind seeing them brought down to "size" if it means listening to what the people who work for a living need, and voting that way instead of in a self-serving way.
