Sensationally senile sedentary solid senators
solemnly, sincere, seriously self-serving
sanctifying, seconding, seeking senatorial reelection...

Some Senators can get quite furious
They can even become injurious
  First scratch 'n then bite
  Get into 'cat-fights'
Their arguments ~ utterly spurious...

There once were some Senators in office
Approving taxes that really cost us
But when an audit was done
The Senators had paid none
These crooks are adding to our losses...

Speechs
    Thosuands of 
citizens 
      Watching 
Reverends, Senators speak
Light coming down from the sun
Light coming from a poet 
Only one dawn 
and a beautiful
new day for the nation 
Begins!...

You both say you have the middle class, 
In mind to help their struggle now,
Where have you both been before?
We’ve been struggling for years,
Senators can’t help,
Just presidents,
Maybe so,
We’ll see,
When...

Senator Kristen Sinema negotiates only in private
Which drives her colleagues and reporters crazy-irate

   I think if America had 49 more Senators like her
   From all their ranting and raving the rest would demur...

Joe Lunchbucket stands on the bread line
The plant closure left him not one dime
  So handouts he seeks
  Like dogs beg for treats
As senators toast to the good times

“S” 
by Lanier Thomas

So,
Seeing
Successful
Salubrious
Senators sitting
Supposedly serving
Silently subordinate
Society, so sickening
Stomachs, several sundry sullen
Students spurned supporting such senators....

the assault rifles help whom exactly
fraternity of gunmen
silence from nra

the killing of innocents continues
as schools practice lockdowns
nra rules

senators vote for nra
yes yes hip hip hooray
lining their pockets with blood money...

In my head politics are crazy
The rich ones way to get more cash
Senators and congress lazy
In my head 
It is a bit hazy
I vote for my Great Aunt Maisey
She eats her food up in a mash,
In my head
Politics are crazy
The rich ones way to get more cash!...

Discect the cetacean on the table
Intercept the axon if you are able
Detect the carcass beneath the table
Protect the deadbeats, as they are unable.

Seven Senators Stood Singing (p)salms!
Shrimp stuffed pie crust often alarms!
consideration only harms!

Politicians 
Congressman, Senators, Mayor's, Governors 
In city,  states presently 
Now and in the past tense 
Yesterday's voted in governing 
The land while in the voting booth 
We pencil in our choices 
Who will lead us

I confess my sins 
To a priest
Who does not speak my language
I am told by other
Sinner us Senators
That it counts

I do my penance
By saying I am sorry 
Two times
I am told by other 
Sinner us Senators
That it counts

I then start sinning
All over again
I am told by other
Sinner us Senators
That God forgives

You say you can’t believe that pile of ,
We built that bit by bit by bit by bit.
We tuned out all the news and all the twitter;
We let him grow bold while we grew bitter.
Congressmen and senators let us down.
How much longer will we let them stick around?
I know that change can take a while to flow
Wake up now friend and see who is the foe....

Politicians, stumbling and frozen in speech?
Aged senators who are unwilling to retire?
What has gone wrong with blessed retirement?
Is it the people's business they're faithfully pursuing?
Or, are they holding on to passion, power, and prestige?
Must we reconsider term limits before they die in office?
I'm loving retirement, but am I missing something?

Furious females take to the streets, shouting
   Staid matrons join them, newly doubting

Angry young males overturn cars, defiant
   Older men surrender their values, and riot

Lawyerly senators attack each other, at virtual war
   As the issues that really matter, go uncared for

Civility is abandoned, all but forgotten
   A nation's lifeblood tainted, utterly rotten...

When the erstwhile Tweeter-in-Chief vents
It is "Freedom of Speech," a First Amendment Right
When Democratic Party will "fight" tyrant-efforts
Defense rests on moral equivalence, yet last night
As many as seven Republican Senators got Party censures
For voting to convict Christian Trump of incitement (01/06/2021)

* I stayed up all night watching CNN from Greece the drama of 
Democracy in the USA. The result is this Senryu and a repost of 
my edited poem of DEMOCRACY.

** Dedicated to all senators and congressmen and to all those 
who stood their ground to defend Democracy!...

Climate changed into just weather.
We watched it happen,
watched the meth-maidens and the hookers
turn pale and ill
Senators secretly paying their motel bills.
Denials fling insults at each other,
It's election fever
and we are fools or establishment tools.
Picking sides is a choice between lies
yet go vote anyhow
you're fully vaccinated now
buttoned-up tight
nothing bad could possibly happen - right?...

An old sage said he had learned;
only when we give love, can it be returned.

What is the gift we have given our world
when beneath their desks, frightened Senators are curled?

Fear mongers spread hate.
A world filled with anger they perpetuate.

Take back our country, restore our lives;
be ready to spread love when order arrives.

The chorus of faceless senators in a mass of a church with the great black light opening. Becoming what is under the cloak of reality. the belly of the beast carrying the church with wood moldy corrode. It calls out from the open mouth of its winged hyenas from the glass spoon forged by the great starfish whose pink runs around the bridge of feathers. Hammering down beating the scales of bees sword thirsty in a windy sky....

Political Snakes
Written: by Miracle Man
2-6-2020

A snake never feels threatened,
because it has the innate ability to camouflage itself,
It blends in with it’s surroundings for self preservation.
But no matter how often it sheds its skin,
A snake remains a snake.

When they call the roll in the senate,
the senators do not know whether to answer “present” or “not guilty.”
Theodore Roosevelt
