Letter To Kenyan Electorate

The books are open
to us who fatten
mice into pigs

even tho' u limp, brethren
crawl to the ward
take seat in the arena

shortly,
curtains will part
To you : Be brutal!

Keen To Be Green

Local authorities’ love recycling
It’s a green policy and its one that wins
They want to reduce the carbon footprint
Of the electorate, for their sins
But if they were truly serious
They’d stop making so many recycling bins

Liar, Liar,
Truth on Fire

Hush little electorate, 
Don't say a word
No one's gonna balk at a single turd

The Donkey fell down
and broke his Crown
and the Elephant came tumbling after

And Itsy Bitsy Liar
Climbed up the spout again.

My Ballot Paper

I have long waited 
This sunny day
To chide myself

Should I cast for this clown
Who with dripping mouth
Sang his electorate his ambitions?

Or this home-made angel
Who with wings of kites
Would myrrh his disciples?

And then again I wonder
Should the heavens rock
Who will restrain the storm?

So I take the little ballot
And with raging words
In verse expend my anguish!

Premium Member Soda Tax Axe

The pols say: ‘A soda tax is OK.’
Cynical voters nix them anyway ~
   For they rightly suspect
   Pols just want to collect ~
Behind it all, a revenue grab preys
