Kamala Harris and Donald Trump behind  lecterns. She is watching him speak, her head tilted and a hand under her chin.

Harris and Trump hit the stage At stake is the next US president The debate was filled with rage The debate was filled with torment It was like watching a tennis match With each participant taking shots Back and forth we watched the barbs hatch Back and forth each tried to connect the dots Harris let her racket do the talking While Trump defended the ball in his courts The participants were mocking and rocking The participants built word forts and false reports Harris wasn't perfect and neither was Trump But you can see clearly which one looked the part Both party's stars are looking to triumph Both party's stars are pledging a fresh start Time and time again we hear campaign dreams So it comes down to which candidate you believe in Which candidate has less Pinnochio inseams Which candidate you want to win On November 5th the votes will be cast And of importance, our American welfare is at stake So think it over and be true and steadfast So think it over and make ... no mistake connie pachecho 9/11/24

Is the writer intimating that the current US landscape as in choppy seas or is the writer describing his observation of the demeanors of both candidates during the debate?
