Does the wonder of poiitics and the contest of how low can they go, ever reach bottom?
The Texas Debate By Franklin Price 2/26/2016 The Texas debate was all bluster and wonder The lightning did flash And the place filled with thunder Twisters of words tried to uproot the trees In an effort to knock the nuts to their knees All rather foolish and comments not fair The temperature rose From mouths pumping hot air The three in the middle put each other down Each trying to chase the two others from town Out on the flanks the two that were there Were gnashing their teeth And pulling their hair They, after all, were not the top of the picks All an example of today's politics As the bell rang when the time was at end Lips kept on flapping To not have to defend Like alley cats they unsheathed their claws The more stupid it got, the more the applause A reality show but not much a debate Their agendas unclear As they rush to that date When the voters must choose our next president I'm praying to heaven that to hell we're not sent
