Yankee Democracy At Crossroads Poem by John Sensele

The half full glass of democrats stresses rats
The half full glass of republicans blesses brats
Puzzling voters in Uncle Sam saunter on political plans
Who undecided scratch beats and their pleats of their clans

Wondering whether in the White House to keep Trump
Or decisively ride on the back of promises on the dem rump
Where hope lives
Sloppy scope never forgives

Choices driven by frenzy fear
In tandem with a tectonic tear
Sure to follow careless choices
Buttressed by vitiated voices

Claiming unproven nonsense
In lies defying common sense
When trust folks repose in a liar
Regardless lustre on a fickle flyer

Free minds deride
As propagandists take folks for a ride
Folks with a naive perspective
Conspiracy theorists turn aggressive.
