BOKE

a public sonnet
to a semi-candidate

 

A Lib'ral rant, good-hearted,
                     bold and true
        can lead like-minded souls
                    to clap and cheer
    BUT as we bleeding hearts
                                  are now quite few
   dear Warren, cut "the facts"
                                           and be a seer.
   OK, the rich fill up the money pot.
      Our public servants bow with begging bowl.
        But av’rage Joes accept the game we've got;
                  They don’t expect a pol to have a soul.

            To tell it clear, how crooked
                  is the game . . .
                      will not inspire the passion
                            that you hope

    So do not waste the blessing
                                         of your fame:
Why don’t you sell a vision?
                                           We can cope.
    The broadband Internet
            provides one key.

         We’ll vote on stories:
               New Democracy.

Boke
