Will Bring About a World of Change

His gift of eloquent banter and jest
got him blessed with a seat wearing a crest
of many colours on his pompous vest,
swelling his breast; our terror of unrest.

He's the rage of everyone's attention
pictorial song and dance admission.
Funny some statements never seem mention
imperfection bringing less attention.

His gift of eloquent banter splitting
the grand stage trying to build a fitting
world of elaborate change unwitting,
out with the old, in with the new knitting.

Storms approaching with rage wanting to wage, 
his statement "I will build a greater stage,
nobody builds them better than a mage.
Mark my words, it will or will disengage.

His gift of eloquent banter and love
have fallen out of trust worth thinking of;
country watch intently from up above,
in balconies chances for former Gov.

So, you heard it all before falling in
and out of trust; will he forfeit or win.

A very fitting poem for tonight, Eve. Did you see the eloquent speech? I enjoyed the Democratic follow up by a handsome Kennedy. This must be for that one contest I have not checked on yet. Good luck if this is written for that one.
