I was never consulted about my birth
Well I know it’s impossible but
Like a dreamer cosy in slumber
If asked I would have elected
To stay in bed instead

For both candidates if elected promise all will be fine
Each runs down the other
Thus pertinent policy never given gesture

In a time of great collapse
No one is stopping our fall
Someone thinks someone else
Will care to save us at all
While those who you elected
Think not to mind your vote
What we do all vibrates out
Beyond seeds that are sowed

The Ill of Capitol Hill

If you think what happened was too bad,
Imagine, had he been elected...
Oh four more years of him
On American dream!
Think, world's a small price paid, and be glad.

In the End

Politicians…

Married  
to the sound
of their own voice

Divorced
from those
who elected them to serve

Philanderers
of a 
bigger truth

Infidels 
in the end
  —only to themselves
 
(Villanova Pennsylvania: October, 2013

Bread Lines

There is nothing now that could be worse,
 
      Than taking money out of the old folks' purse.

      So our elected officials need to remember,
  
      It will soon come November,

      And to the bread lines...they may be FIRST!
