I know patience is
a virtue but sometimes it
is hard to be virtuous.
~
And anger, a vice.
Why is it much easier
to retreat to viciousness?

Who could even tell
if the government shut down?
It’s been gridlocked for decades.

Government Service
is a high calling for those
who know how to serve.
Reset and restart –
a suggested agenda
for a nation gone astray.
~
Too late to recall
our recent dubious choice
but we could not re-elect.
Doesn’t that fool know
even allies become foes
when you grab their bottom line?
~
If those allies are
also foolish, they’ll remain
loyal even so.
If we aren’t Native
Americans, are we not
illegal immigrants too?

Now let’s split some hairs:
Since we’re legal emigrants,
somebody gave us status!
Since he’s free to say
all these ridiculous things,
we’re free to ridicule him.
~
What is it they say –
freedom’s just another word
for nothing left to lose?
Complicit silence –
expediency’s coin to
assuage Tyranny’s piper.

Egomaniacs
hear all noise as ringing praise;
silence; implicit consent.
If you thought today

just wait until tomorrow.

It’s not the day nor
the hour; rather, it is
our nation’s Tweeter-in-Chief.
When Obama speaks,
sentences are complete. Hope,
not hate, is offered.
~
Huge elitist snob…
clearly he’s not one of us…
show that boy he don’t belong.
Promises of rain,
here in the height of summer,
buoy weary souls.
~
But a whole week’s worth
will dampen the spirits of
even the most buoyed souls.
