Political Frozen Feet... Oct 7th,2013 Poem by James Bredin

No propositions and no binding referendums allowed,
The establishment types want us to talk but with our heads bowed,
To show respect and don’t dare try to turn on the Internet,
Strange ideas that might get inside our heads and then infect.



No mid-term or set-date elections or maybe none at all,
Their political parties have us with our backs against the wall,
No proportional representation in their first-past-the-post,
Banned from the UN Security Council though they might boast.



At one time I thought that they might bring about political change,
Remember Mulroney’s GST and what his Senate arranged,
No one with an independent thought is allowed to come forth,
And death with dignity is not allowed, nor will it be henceforth.
