The sunsets are red; now Ottowa will shed!

Monday is coming..I can taste the dread.! a sacrifical
Summit i see ahead.' The condemed has long snorted
A magical power.? Dusty corners await now a'quiver to 
Devour' aquaintances are many, and friends will be few.'
Times and a half times, once upon a time! (you were new)
You've consulted the augeries, and laid out the bones
Burned up the ether; been all hours on the phone' yet all
Comes to nothing, as when you were in power.? Your drop
Is fast coming, on the hill (you will cower!) Will it be steely
Silence? slippery as ice? Will there be great tumult?
When you are squeezed in the vice.! Will you go out the
Statesman?? It won't be that nice..Yet you tore down and
Ravaged now you'll receive; your own slice' oh yes they are, awaiting in style, in Ottowa to renounce you. Old trudeau.
And your well tarnished wiles.'

Yep, no fan of Trudeau either. Perhaps he will harvest what he has reaped, back all the unnecessary pain and suffering he has caused many. To lead a nation is a sacred power, sadly often abused for the selfish acquisition of own soil and flower.

Our actions will be rightly rewarded, if not now, may be later. What we sow, we reap. If people in power misuse their privileges and their might, know 'their drop is fast coming'. A great warning, dear Joe.

Hello Joe, What a strong and insightful poem that reflects the failing of politics. I typically do not comment on politics but since it is another country I will. Great Read! - Blessings, My Friend, Daniel
