Same Old Same Old

Politicos prattle
their prating rattle,
will such rantings ever cease ?

Smugly they sanctimone
as listeners,inward groan;
With theories,so unreal
hypothesising on how we feel;

Will such arrogance condescend
listen,or unbend-
or is it all just talk
sans hard yards of walk.

Trust me,it won't happen again !
