Washington, Dc

The Capitol’s a scary place to be.
It’s overrun by noisy, wild-eyed critters.
These hordes are a surreal sight to see,
with actions that give some of us the jitters!

Just thinking of them is so darned depressing.
Their antics recent news reports are stressing.
Compared to them, cicadas are a blessing!

Hello Janice … it’s no different here Janice. The chirping that comes out of Canberra saw all the cicadas migrate - thank you Janice - Lindsay
