Political Good Intentions

                           The ambulance raced to cross the tracks,

                            Good intentions were the driver’s facts:

                            To save a life if he can pass,

                            The freight train’s undeterred attack.


                            And so the politicians dare to ask,

                            Never expecting to be unmasked,

                            Only judgement on good intentions,

                            Rejecting damage and self implications.
