Our political dichotomy
Finally has got to me
I propose a cure
It is one that’s sure
...

Conservatives believe it when they see it
Liberals see it when they believe it
Like parallel lines
That never entwine
...

Why do we old codgers
Feel compelled to write poems
That force us to invoke
Words like Jeroboam.
...

My son asked me to write a poem.
A school project he said
My peers just laughed, but I’ll show ‘em.
I’ll write a poem that’ll be read.
