The Best Vodka


Voting is the best vodka
******* ever drank
Gave 'em equality liquor dreams,
had 'em thinking they're something that they ain't
At least not in the eyes
of non-polite alt right society
Their thinking is:
being crammed in the back of a bus,
getting shipped off to another war for democracy
is the proper place for ******* to be
Black sardines go well with vodka, don't you agree
C'est la vie
Voting is the best vodka
coloreds ever drank
Gave 'em hangover equality dreams,
had 'em believing they're something that they ain't
At least not in the minds
of polite leftist intellectual society
Their thinking is:
create paternalistic policies to keep 'em pacified,
while allowing  'em to sacrifice their lives
in another war for democracy
Then try their next social experiment guilt-free ...
the coloreds will, of course, thank them properly
Black test tubes are the best glasses
for drinking vodka, don't you agree
C'est la vie
I ain't never been much of a drinker,
much less have a taste for voting vodka
Those poor comrades of disillusionment and discontent,
still have black Russian fantasies,
of which crack pipe dreams are made of

Your words of superb imagery gently take the reader to a private place in your heart and we feel welcome. I am captured by the images so skillfully developed by the author and the passion of the words move me. Your words burn within our hearts and your pain comes alive, filling us with such overpowering emotions that we share your pain. Emile. #7

I am glad you are feeling better Freddie, so I can read your beautiful poetry again. Vodka... I only liked it with orange juice. But indeed. When and where is justice?
