Had to write something for Constitution day.
Today is Constitution Day By Franklin Price 9/17/2016 Today is Constitution day Accepted many years ago Our government defined therein Explains how things should go Politicians of today Honor it when they see fit If it doesn't follow what they want They deviate more than a bit Works fairly well, most of the time Though none have read it much Claim ignorance of the law that's there Don't have to stay in touch The longer they're in office Seems the more that they ignore It's time now to replace them And vote them out the door When replacements know the reason The Constitution they may read And follow what is written there Which is not graft and greed I know I am an optimist And I will be 'til I die To find an honest politician Is like grabbing pie out of the sky
