A Voter's Woe (a poem)
Oh woe is me, oh woe, oh woe.
To vote or not, I just don't know.
To stay at home would really show
Those idiots in Washington where to go.
But go they would, then where would I be?
Between 'you know who' and the deep blue sea,
Swimming upstream helplessly,
The world going 'you know where' speedily.
I can't be Pelosied. I won't be out—Foxed.
I will not let the country I love be boxed
Into a corner by the muling bleats
Who'd sell 'you know what' for some nice new suites.
I may fuss with Republicans. I can always find
Fault with each one, but I've set my mind
On the larger picture, won't see us in tatters.
On November 7th I'll vote for what matters.
