Turn the Page
Turn the page
history repeats itself
like worn pages upon a shelf
read, used and discarded
author's left brokenhearted
the will to believe, to follow
mirrored faces hollow
from the politicians lips
to child *********** hips
leaders of the new world
educating the little girls
onto the path to success
keys hidden beneath the dress
when will we turn the page
and voice our outrage
or just accept it as law
democracy's fatal flaw.....
Bob Shank-Oct. 8th, 2006
the hell with a vote, grab a rope
