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 of placards
and a forest of words,
a crescendo of noise,
call for peace without unity
hunger hugs not a belching belly
wretchedness forever at 
enmity with riches

Fellow man, 
the weight been 
long and heavy
Le band's gang led
they have a dance,
You got a date, a dicot
conscience, chagrin
It's about time you made 
love to your country!

Take a big deep
cast your ballot for
broken toe nails
parched throats
unattended sick
the illiterate
the young dead
wrinkled bellies 
and running stomachs

Bow not unto any creed,
tongue, but go forth
eyes closed
and spit into the storm
Puaaah!

Premium MemberBedfellow 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.

Premium MemberDominion 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 think it's fine.
They hate America with its freedoms and republic sunshine!


                        ~God keep us totally free~
When votes are but trash,America cannot be!

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

do have much disgust
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 will often voice
be right and rejoice

Alligator Who Lived on Equator

an alligator
liked living on equator
truly trump hater

presume that prices
always part of a crisis
surely suffices

must be admitting
puzzle parts started fitting
so am not quitting

together putting
puzzle parts that are fitting
never quitting

Latest fads.

spoiled child sparing rod
while trump will think he is God
lied committing fraud

had hit below belt
and what was latest result
a total insult

when votes were compiled
by trump we had been beguiled
suspicious and smiled

trump has been a threat
causing us to be upset
fret with much regret

Premium MemberConversation 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.

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 
starve the poor and feed the rich
It’s not the greatest sales pitch 
brand new hospitals, cut the pay of those fat cats
more broken promises from liberal democrats
their lips move but the truth does not come out 
empty promises is all they spout
save the planet the rallying call
just before they fly to las Vegas for the climate ball
trusts a dirty word not to be believed 
spoken my Politian’s who ask should we stay or leave 
you will still go work and get poor pay 
and they don’t listen to what you say 
they will just mock your decision   
your vote means more when cast it for strictly on television

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 child
with no understanding of complex issues,
he feels others inferior—
those unfamiliar with his talking heads.

The next morning his disappointment
overwhelms
when tallies reveal loss
and enemies rejoice.

Friends and family are pushed
into the background,
as grief overcomes
the now despondent voter.

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 being so sexy
Balaam’s mule is shaking his hemorrhaging head
Dire diagnosis: Voter apoplexy, I’m afraid — 
campaign promises are clinging on life support
State of emergency inaugural arrival,
listen to what the Surgeon General said:
Democracy is flatlining ... ‘bout to go brain dead
And the lobbyist mortician merchants are free-market shilling:
Get the funeral voter discount,
an ivory coffin is life insurance tax-cut pre-paid
Vote for the wizard you do know ... 
follow the Oz path to perdition, 
where yellow bricks of cruel compassion are laid

Premium MemberRegistered 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 my box, I read it all.
Thrilled my yard is decorated with free signs
from both democrat and that other party as well.

Befuddled am I by the newspaper articles and letters 
to the editor changing my mind over and again,
confused by the television ad contradicting the
commercial just aired by the opposing opponent.

Tediously taking notes while listening to talk radio
refuting facts from previous pundits interrupted
by my ever ringing doorbell announcing another
concerned citizen soliciting suggested suffrage.

Today is Monday, I still don’t know how I’ll vote,
who best represents my interests, cares about me.
I’m just thankful that tomorrow it’ll all be over
at least until Wednesday when the recounts begin.

From An Alabama Voter To Donald Trump

Said Forrest Gump
To Donald Trump:
"Do ya think I'm a chump?
Crazy is as crazy does
I'd never vote for such a scuzz"

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 take care
Voters started forming long line.

Early voter may want to be
It is so easy and all for free
Check to see if name on list
And hope we had not missed
Civic duty you do start to see.

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.

The Ambiguous Voter

Be cold or hot  
with the faith you’ve got,
The lukewarm are headed south.
He vomits them from His mouth.
Be careful at whose table you eat;
if His Word is not welcome,
shake their dust from your feet.

A presidential pick 
A thorn’s poisonous prick
in the back side 
of the true Catholic.

True Christians carry the weight
of his obvious religious hate.
Backed by his Trojan ponies;
picked, power hungry cronies.

This administration
is an abomination.
An ongoing constitutional heist,
led by an obvious Anti Christ.

He delegates his power
like a golden shower,
sucked in by political porcelain receivers,
vortexing power hungry deceivers.

He laughs as he sees them scramble, 
for the crumbs of power he drops,
while he tears up the preamble
And reads his own minion props.

Even Christian voters, whose rights he destroys,
vote for him and his wily ploys.
The dark side and ignorance reigns supreme,
as they hypnotically vote to kill ,
their own American dream.

Swinging Voter

Swinger voter

Swing voter are you what?
Swallow the brainwash, surely not,
Change your vote support the master?
want’s  dollars from your sweat , “their-after,”
Cos it’s only true, money for the few,
Stinking rich “here-after “?!?
 
Newspaper lies, owned by the master,
Brainwash you, complete the plaster,
Who do you support, yes you ?
What are ya gonna do?
Vote 4 the rich, it’s your disaster,
But you knew?
