VOTER AWARENESS AND POLITICAL WINDS
I
As the American
Political world turns,
Its winds of change
Are blowing with
An enormous increase
In voter pressure:-
To determine the direction
In which these winds blow,
Ironically, the political
Pressure gradient force
Of the political parties,
Seems to be focused
On money, rather than
Political ideology:-
Thus, let us voters
Be ever mindful that
It is our vote, that is the sun
That determines the directions
Of the political wind forces
Seeking to navigate the nation:-

Though we’re poor,
Our votes are priceless;
More valuable than is Gold,
And indeed, much more powerful:-
Yet, political parties still focus more
On begging the poor for money,
Rather than how they will help us
Survive trials and tribulations:-

In awareness of the power of the vote,
And the audacious capitalistic mendacity
0f politically begging money from those
Trying to survive the cost of living, must
Now be met with this guided awareness:
Let them now seek to earn our votes:-
