Mark Koplin Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

The Election Blues

What side of the coin will show its face?
Will it be heads or tails to end this race?
Will they count real votes or just the fakes?
It’s been a long grueling year for heaven sakes.

Will they count our votes minus socks and shoes?
Will the watermarked ballots create the blues?
A mind-numbing process will now unfold.
Will they accept the results, will the truth be told?

More violence I’m sure will rear its head.
If we defund the police, how many more will be dead?
Will we get the Great Pumpkin or the Basement Dweller?
I think we’re screwed either way with these two fellers.

Gershon Wolf November 7, 2020 at 6:28 PM Haha! Enjoyed the sarcasm, and have to agree with your assessment of the candidates.... As of this comment, Joe B's won --- although I feel strongly that he didn't win; Trump beat himself... Well, I'll support the President-elect. No sense not doing so; won't help anything. Let's wish America good luck! :) gw Mark Koplin November 8, 2020 at 7:13 AM A very positive view and I agree. Thanks Gershon!

Lindsay Laurie November 5, 2020 at 3:47 PM G’day Mark … you people in the US must be absolutely sick to the death of this election and still it goes on. Thank God our voting system is nothing like your outdated one - I hope the result is accepted quick so you can all move on Mark - Lindsay Mark Koplin November 6, 2020 at 2:50 PM Hi Lindsay, now we will have the recounts and lawsuits. It's far from done but it looks like Trump is done.

Thanks Jan!
