SHUTDOWN PAUSE
The Federal Government shutdown
No work for employees to be found
It has been a good three weeks
The President and the Republicans thinking retreat
What would it take to open the Federal Government?
It’s about both sides on compromise
The thought is no surprise
The capitol logic to realize
America on a holding pattern
Things to do and places to go
No pace simply slow
Being still
Nothing to fulfill
Decision kill
Federal Government having no thought in where they stand
Frozen on high powers command
Washington eyes blind folded
A sight to see with no assurance
Aftermath having no push through influence
How and when being anyone’s guess
Open up the Federal Government to function in request
Stuck on pause
No agreement cause.
