You Should Not Fear Roundelet

You should not fear,

though their brawls are so unyielding.

You should not fear,

though the deadline is very near.

Congress will raise the debt ceiling,

despite your skeptical feeling.

You should not fear.

Thanks for your entry to my contest. But I would request you to correct and rewrite your poem as I committed some mistakes in laying down the rules. please visit the Contest Page and do the needful. Don't worry if you can't. I shall allow the entry as followed by the rules you read. But good if you can correct it.

That's pretty good, I feel this applies to more than the United States of America though. There's a number of "Debt Ceilings" that are raised throughout life.
