Another Election Poem by Donal Mahoney

Another Election



You can't vote for him
and you can't vote for her
and you can't vote for the others
you've never heard of.

The others may not be as odd
but in your mind
their platforms are wobbly
one way or the other.

So you plan to write in
Justice Ginsburg,
who fits in with the others
in being out of the ordinary.

But you are fond of her smile.
It reminds you of Halloween
and this is just one more election.
What the hell.
