Letter To Kenyan Voter
I quit
I throw my hands down
and sit, sometimes
they called for reconciliation without
justice
They called for justice without
truth
Now they ask for prayer without
confession, umpteenth,
it chafes
Has dishonesty made you inadequate
to let go the desecration
infringement
negligence
graft
shame of these violations
which bake violence?
Yet another fifth year
our memo calls us to speak
See how they dance
under a canopy

Bedfellow of Fate
Destiny, I’d say, is the bedfellow of fate
Wedded they walk in undisclosed ways,
Suspense of mystery their kindred trait
As to our country, the outcome of late
Every politician trying to accommodate,
Depending on how the electorate sways
Destiny, I’d say, is the bedfellow of fate
Wedded they walk in undisclosed ways.

The Usa Needs To Have Secure Boarders
The United States of America needs secure southern boundaries but obviously not according to the current Biden/Harris administration. The Democrats seem to be oblivious to the massive uncontrollable immigration entering our southern boarders in the State of Texas and the State of Arizona! The amount could reach at least a million by the ending of

Dominion Vs the Voter
~I have to wonder what it's like.~
........
After all, I live in a world so twisted.
Where wrong is right, and right is so ineffably misted.
Where destruction of cities is a daily habit.
By Socialiist and Antifa, with less brains than wild rabbits.
When our great Republic may indeed fall,
Crushed by the diabolical Dominion's Wall.
And the brainwashed world,ah yes,they

Voter Versus Counter
Voter Versus Counter
By Stalin, Lenin and Putin
always never who
that will have cast their ballot
but who does count them
horror and hectic
trump surely is pathetic
creates much static

loser trump if full of lust
who we never trust
being endearing
not here and disappearing
which we were fearing
do have desire
to prepare much satire
that should inspire
can always make choice
of what we

Conversation With a Voter
Let’s qualify voters.
What do you mean?
Since the Electoral College is here to stay
A system put into place by slave owners,
And no one tore it down with the statues,
Let’s make up our own rules.
Like what?
Let’s make voters take I.Q. Tests.
If they get below sixty-five percent, they cannot vote.
Can we still vote for the Electoral College?
Sure.
Okay.

Does Polly Scientist Want a Cracker
If one really cares
They can approach their local Mayor
To ask them a question on a Greek organization hazing dare
Either walking through the outdoor mall
Or in a bathroom stall
Yes in the can!
A citizen can make a stand
While dropping a their flap
Making sure the Mayor knows where things are

The Faithless Voter
Hans Christian Andersen getting jealous
its election time and Politian’s are getting zealous
telling tales is now the norm
the promises are falling like in a heavy rain storm
fake news fills your news feed
all written to convert and mislead
they will promise you the moon and stars
then send your kids to die in wars

The Voter
The plastic card slides into the slot
and his finger records selections,
reflecting opinions
shaped by talking heads on TV.
The voter sighs
while listening to the printer
add his ballot
to the paper strip.
He exits the polling place
with a champion’s swagger,
as if his ballot is greater.
The smile on his face
reflects fulfillment,
like a teacher at day’s end.
But,
as though he were a

Voter Discount
One-third off,
sixty-six percent marked down quality
At the voting booth bazaar,
base gypsy thoughts are belly dancing
around your capitalist-veiled head
You like what that smiling politician said;
promising you a lot of green bread,
come get your lying share
Saying you gon have so many job offers,
corporate courting you to their employment bed
Every four years,
work is always
glamour sold as

Registered Voter
Have I ever been a voter
No
But let me tell you why
Unless I know exactly
Exactly what they would do
Ok
I would vote then I cant
Manage my easy life
How am I supposed to
Deal with the stress
Of a horrible Man or Woman
In office for 4 years
And I helped elect them

The Informed Voter
Oxymoron of the day: Politically Correct
“Hi, I’m Carl Palmer and I approve of this poem.”
The Informed Voter
Donald Trump called, knew my name,
called me Carl, left a message, I wasn’t home.
Hillary Clinton called, knew my name, called
me Carl, left a message, I wasn’t home, darn.
Excited that so many candidates want my vote
who sent me mail, filled

Voter Registration Without Hesitation
Voter Registration Without Hesitation
Did not wait or hesitate to registrate
And then to vote will never be late
Democratic Party me they did invite
Temptation off won't have to fight
Hillary won which was so great.
Wouldn't it really be devine
If we were to have a voter sign
So to vote we did know where
All of us there they did

A Non-Voter Asks
Educated derelicts,
Professor of fools,
Scholars of crap,
Leaders that moo;
What is then intellect,
If honor is your weight in gold?
Such mineral torch can test,
Molten like poo.
