Breaking Up Is Hard To Do Poem by Joe Rosochacki

Terminator is to about to determine what’s to be the best,
He was California(n) Dreamin’ on not so a winters day,
He is governor of the biggest state in the coastal west,
Arnold said you can’t eat your cake and have it too,
-especially today.
It seems that ‘California here we come’
-is not the sum
-of its parts.
There is talk among the Bloggs whether California should be split,
In two, three or maybe four states.
The economy is to blame,
The separation of California,
From LA being across the Bay from San Francisco,
I was taught,
Would occurring in thousands of millennia from now,
Not in the imminent future,
California, if it splits the next decade or so,
It will be from the US economy and “Californication’,
Not Saint Andre(w) s fault.
