When....Good Folks...Forfeit - Submit Poem by James B. Earley

Thinking...of where
......We are today
And how and when
Things got this way

....Life's....now one
Foul piece of shit
...'Tis what...occurs
When good folks forfeit

Now wretched burdens
....Our bodies....tote
Happened all because
....We failed...to vote

Nothing was taken
...We literally.....gave
Desecrating those souls
Whose rumbling graves

....Instead...of rest
Their future finds...
No sight of Heaven
But...demented minds

......And politics
A crock of shit
That's...what occurs
When good folks submit

..........To

Mankind's frustration
..Bigotry's continuation
Life's critical...abdication
....Humanity's degradation
*
*
Thus....demonic infiltration

...Begat

The Trump.....Administration
*
*
Democracy's threatened...annihilation....
*
*
...When...
.................Good Folks
.......................................Forfeit
