Lean to the left, definitely not to the right
this year's choice is plain in sight.
preach about crime yet praise a 
hammer to the head. Wake an old man
as he sleeps in his bed. Speak about the truth
yet spread all the lies. Your attempts to 
apologize are such a disguise. Your rehearsed
delivery ends with the same false theory, 
your acolytes rejoice at what they hear. I spend my days 
angry at what my country has become, 
one party full of despots the other runs from.
the fascists, the haters, and those who blame
immigrants, gays, blacks, and all who aren’t 
Christian nationalists are their claim to fame. 
I’ve seen with my eyes what autocracy brings, 
corruption, lies, and injustice, just to begin
All their crimes yet show no chagrin. The far-right 
Congressmen are almost there. Their hatred
of all without their views, no room for 
discussion or belief in the truth.  I wish I knew 
the answer to what will happen this year, if the 
misogynists win we will soon live in fear.  A change will
be upon us that is for sure. Our freedom I’m afraid
will cease and be no more.  Listen to the rhetoric at the rallies
hey give, it provides a clue about what will be
remiss. This morning I heard a Republican say, that if 
he became governor, he would be forever made. Their
words are not whispered for anyone to hear, they yell
them through a megaphone so it’s loud and clear.
turn a blind eye and sit idly by, don’t come and
complain when those running our country are 
clinically insane. The case has been made by 
many this year, everyone must vote as the death 
of our democracy looms near.
