    To me the right has become mostly a meme

    Blocking political process is now the main theme

    The SCOTUS taking bribes left and right

    Gerrymandering going on day and night

    Most democrats have the appeal of The Simpsons’ Flanders

    He’s getting pretty old but I like Bernie Sanders

    The rich get richer / The poor get poorer / When our time comes / No guilt for the horror

    or maybe

    The planet is burning / We die of starvation / Abolish the wealthy / And claim our salvation

    or maybe

    One, two, buckle my shoe / Three, four, overthrow the 1% and bring about a socialist utopia, etc

    Anarchism is the way, workers only you should pay.

    The rich and wealthy we should eat, nutrition shouldn't be sourced from meat.

    I really don't care
    It's neither here nor there
    I live alone in the woods
    My biggest worry is bear
    And his economic stance on my foods

    People dislike the present

    Yet always vote Blue or Red

    I only vote independent

    And people still blame me for who led

    Like tectonic plates, growing apart

    With Xitter and Facebook neatly doing their part

    The legislature doesn’t really care about me

    They get there money and healthcare for free

    Meanwhile, we suffer from this polarization

    Not just the US, but almost every nation

    War, corruption and global warming give me a hopeless feeling

    Almost on a daily basis, reading news leaves me reeling

    Am I just a pessimist or will we really fail?

    Are we watching the apocalypse in slow motion while wagging our tail

    Roses are red

    Landlords are poo

    The Maoist uprising against the landlords was the most comprehensive proletarian revolution in history, leading to almost totally equal redistribution of the land amongst the peasantry

    The simple narrative taught in every history class Is demonstrably false and pedagogically classist Don't you know the world is built with blood? And genocide and exploitation The global network of capital essentially functions To separate the worker from the means of production And the FBI killed Martin Luther King Private property's inherently theft And neoliberal fascists are destroying the left And every politician, every cop on the street Protects the interests of the pedophilic corporate elite

    There are so many politics issues

    That I would be here all day

    So if you want to know what mine are

    Treat this comment as an AMA

      I wonder what you think

      Of the old orange dink

      Or maybe of the wealth

      That is burning the earth in stealth?

      My questions may be loaded

      And my Rhymes are kind of bloated

        Donald Trump may have tried his best

        But I wouldn't call his reign good

        No president for a while withstood the test

        They had not been as they should

        Since the 2000's I've been around

        But they've all been meh to me

        He's no different I have found

        And that's fine, it's a fact of life you see

        Tolerating their presence I can do

        Sitting through it isn't a big deal

        It's not like they affect me or you

        Presidents are sitting ducks, let's be real

        As for the wealth issue you speak of

        Capitalism should add a few rules

        Otherwise if push does come to shove

        If we do nothing we would be fools

    I yearn to be free

    To plant a tall tree

    Or maybe five or fifty

    A greener world would be nifty

    /

    Power corrupts

    So why should we bother

    With coups so abrupt

    And Dictator Father?

    /

    Yet democracy still

    Gives me a chill

    Tyranny of the masses

    Why the rose colored glasses?

    /

    Corporate greed

    Is not immune

    From society's bleed

    Into authoritarian noon

    /

    So what, then? A king?

    Or anarchy's kiss?

    How do we give up the bling?

    Live a life full of bliss?

    /

    The truth lies inside

    The life we observe

    Is the one that we chose

    And thus, what we deserve

    /

    If we want to be free

    Change from a few's not enough

    Not just a million and three

    But collectively, all of us

    There was a young man from Bluff,
    Who quite frankly had enough.

    Feeling sick through,
    With with interchangable red/blue.

    With research in hand,
    And policy that's not bland.

    This time with great zeal,
    This time I'll vote the colour teal.
