Politics, Oh Politics! Poem by Elizabeth Padillo Olesen
Politics, Oh Politics!
Politics, oh politics
you promise and you promise
for good times and abundant times;
You promise lofty promises
which often turn into ashes.
Politics, oh politics
you make convincing,
rehearsed and excellent speeches,
often responded by
by resounding applauses.
Make your speeches
short and simple!
Make your promises tangible!
Politics, oh politics,
You exist to bring peace and justice!
