No Other Concerns Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Who is it left,
That respects common sense expressed.
And decisions made,
With the best of judgement to take.
If the ones elected,
To represent the interests of the people...
Can not do this without,
The one who sits to have been picked...
At the top of the decision making list,
Has already proven an interest to have...
Is more in the keeping of an image.
Rusting away in displays of incompetence.
Yet...
Convinces the people,
Their main focus is on...
Money in one's pocket.
And not a quality of life.
Regardless of whatever it is on the horizon,
That may threaten money to have...
Noticed in pockets.
Or how this is possible to do.
Without having any other concerns.
Even in the face of an epidemic creating fear.
