I am here, you are there but I have no fear

The politicians...

And then the Head Elephant rose from the dead 
Surprising and shocking everyone
All cheered, “He is alive!” they shouted
“He lives!”

The opposition wrung their hands,

Winds of change 
are fanning the flames 
are fanned by the deranged. 
The flames of misdirection, 
the winds giving chase

Horned cheering section.) 
Drones of the BlackRock, riders in holdings...

masquerading as a fantasy
There were separate, reality TV...

Be it your profile I search for often, 
always keeping up when something happens,

Refrain:

Beware ye netizens
of the internet troll

There dwell within the internet
A vile creature with a rash wreath
Who spews their venom
From between their buck teeth

Heels and teeth chattering

The judge fills out her page

Our dresses are less than flattering

Our moderator waves, we all engage

Unfocused thoughts start scattering

We pray our voices have come of age

Like gladiators, though in suits,
They marched onto the stage,
Their confidence or nervousness
Impossible to gauge.

The moderator welcomed them.
The crowd gave their applause;
And then we held our breaths, in hope
Of seeing someone’s flaws.

Their words lashed out, attacking,

They smiled, shook hands and took their spots,
Preparing for a fight
And each made verbal jabs which filled
Supporters with delight.

They ducked and feinted, spewing words
To bring the other down,
Believing that by doing so,
They’d earn themselves the...

A book discussion group is reveling,
Delightful entertainment; always fun.
A bunch of book enthusiasts seeking
A monthly intellectual session
Expressing individual comments
About a previously agreed on tome.

The session having questions taken from
The volume. Answers...
