Best Shutdown Poems
millions arrived on
capitol hill protesting
goverment shutdown
Stress
political angst
insecurity
leaders thump their chests
cling to positions
Joe Lunchbucket waits
he wants to work
needs the pittance
to feed his clan
pay the mortgage
insulting
“adjustments”
can’t be made
shutdown’s
mounting
stress
*January 19, 2019
I am sorry, but there is outright denial,
About violation of law and national security
Regarding illegals crossing our border!
I have been to Central America
They are not just escaping crime there
They are responsible for bringing children miles
For other reasons and violating laws to get what they want!
I have done a lot of research in the past to do with this
There were clear, direct reports then, from border agents
It is not propaganda that criminals have illegally crossed,
The border into our country
It is not propaganda that gang members have illegally crossed,
The border into our country
Nor is it a lie that diseases were spread to Americans,
After transports from detention centers, that killed American children!
Also, the strong drugs being brought by illegals,
Have contributed to the drug crisis here!
We already have crime out of control here happening
And the issue of over-populated prisons
To ignore these things, is ignoring the law and safety of Americans!
To refuse to budge regarding National Security
With this invasion of thousands of illegals, is harming our country!
It is contributing to the Government shutdown every day!
I am not here writing this as a Trump supporter, because I wasn’t
I am writing as an American and I can clearly see what is happening,
From the backlash of prior policies and facts getting twisted now!
This is a serious issue that requires attention and compromise!
Americans Unite!
God Bless America!

1/17/19. *In addition, today 1/19/19, President Trump stated the true facts regarding the security risks from our border. He offered a reasonable solution to deal with all this. If it is rejected, continuing this Government shutdown, that will be very harmful to our country.
*Thank you to all those who came to our country through the correct legal process. I am sorry others do not.
Both
Sides
Stubborn
Not budging
Washington impasse
The government shutdown drags on
While the furloughed and unpaid federal workers suffer
When will the captains of complacency in Washington finally end this madness?
Date written and written: 01/21/2019
Weapons of massive destruction
Disabled at the firing button.
Systems of hate shutdown.
Time warped and turned around.
Don't be surprised before your eyes
Are found. Changing color is sound.
Those of Gluttony for Glory sake,
A change of Way comes to take.
The sound is indiscriminate.
Shutdown of weapons imitate.
This includes your tongue.
Envy corrodes the fun.
Greed is a worthless One.
New logs are under construction....
In the once-great City of Chicago
all the public schools are shut down
Teachers threatened to strike
Parents had nervous breakdowns
So there's on-line instruction
up to seven hours a day
Does that sound reasonable
Psychologists say no way...
Meanwhile, Jewish schools are open
All the kids attend, and they're stoked
to prove that public schoolteachers' bravado
~ is no more than a bona-fide hoax
Enforced Shutdown Five
The geek hacked into the jet plane while in flight.
Used his USB and laptop to gain access via the docking port.
Cosmetic damage to widen the port was nothing
compared to cutting the engines and crashing the plane.
Two hundred passengers screamed when the engines fell silent
then cheered madly when they surged at full power.
Terror returned when silence again returned.
What did not return was death.
He tapped on the door and gained entry.
One passenger had a heart attack, another a stroke.
The remaining 198 shouted in dread.
Yes, you're all going to die. Get over it.
Some wrote out their wills, others I love you notes.
When the airliner touched the mountain, it was over.
A kiss of death, ending their plight.
Broken plane, scarred rock, dismembered bodies, burning fuel.
The code Enforced Shutdown Five was emailed to all the networks.
Before the crash actually happened, it was news.
A 123 situation in real time.
Faster than a bullet, it was over.
The hacker parachuted out at the last minute.
It was the third time he'd done this...
Be aware tho who don,t care not willing to share not black or white do what's right they won,t all for a wall stop dreamer from being around that's WHY SHUTDOWN
Surprised situation
No warning
Darkened city
The unknown
The walking to where?
Silent
People moving cautiously
Elevators stuck everywhere
Fire Department rescue action
Wonders on everyone’s mind
No explanation
Shutdown connection
Condition
Electricity all out
Stuck on pause
No cause
