Although the exact...

Progress
by Michael R. Burch

There is no sense of urgency
at the local Burger King.

Birds and squirrels squabble outside
for the last scraps of autumn:

I believe there are still honest politicians
Who try to do their best for our country,
While others, out of grandiose ambitions

To our delicate ears, those shows were considered wholesome,
Unlike some television...

 Silence is Deadly 

Stand up

Trump would be a gravestone

Out with infighting and lack of general respect,
Let’s restore our Congressional reputation
Rank partisanship and grandstanding
While padding their own coffers, I expect!

Turns down flowers from her Caucasian
