The Laureate-Pols Fouls
Pols Fouls
We know the rich affect our laws.
Tis time the voters fix such flaws.
If those like Koch or NRA
back some pols, let vote be nay.

The Laureate-Adieu To Thee GOP
Adieu To Thee GOP
After years of being Red,
I quaked at where your path had led.
I still chose who will represent,
but fear the rich now fluff your bed.
Now finally Republicans,
you’ve forced me to turn Blue.
You’ll heed the Prez and all he says...
even though it’s pooh.

The Laureate-Evident, My President
Evident, My President!
When mags, or books, or dirty looks
criticize with tour de force,
you should not tweet, nor threat, nor curse...
‘tis best that you now alter course.

The Laureate-Constitutional Crises
Constitutional Crises
Logic and law...the same for all,
Forefathers had ordained.
What once stood tall
we’ve now seen fall...
for politicians those rules strained.

The Laureate-Prez Vitriol.
The Prez Vitriol
When Prez tweets vitriol and lies,
on
bully
pulpit he relies.
He bullies from afar
and acts like he’s a Csar,
but he won’t look them in the eye.
{
When face-to -face he may be shy

The Laureate-Kavanaugh, et al
Kavanaugh, et al
Over half the voters chose the Blue,
but Red pols act like that’s not true.
If Reds pass laws with facts opaque,
No one can know what they forsake.
{You may regret it when they do!}

The Laureate-In Memory of John McCain
In Memory of John McCain
John McCain showed Red and Blue
you can make friends with any hue.
You find you’ll understand their goal,
once you share part of their soul.
Don’t let McCain’s works die in vain...
let life and limn of wisdom reign.
