In Real Life Poem by Randy McClave

In real life
He could of helped and ended some strife,
He could of been helpful and caring
With the teachings of Jesus he could of been sharing.
He could of helped those truly in need
He could have stood up against greed,
The poor and the hungry he could of fed
Help for then he could of led.
He could have served our nation well
If in military if he did prevail,
He could have proudly served for the red, white and blue
As all young men at his younger age do.
He could have fought against racism and bigotry
All across our great country,
And in his own morality and sights
He could of fought for women's rights.
He could of stood and fought for the working man
That could had been his greatest plan,
He could of helped him with his wages and his taxes
Give them a bigger tax return, and the wealthy got the axes.
He could of stood strong on foreign affairs
The immigrants would of got his help and prayers,
He could of stood strongly with all of his allies
That would had indeed been a great prize.
Others things he could have easily had done
And millions of hearts he could of proudly won,
But, he only did them with talk and his closed eyes
He accomplished them all, only by saying he did them with his lies.
