national election...Hope-ee-um!

ah - the national election

has come

     and gone

 

we can all breathe

a sigh

of relief

 

and trust

that the powers that be

-will be

 

and all the experts

that have all the degrees

will now do their jobs

and take care of you

and me

 

they will make things right

-stop their bickering.

stop their fight, 

and fix it-

 

after all-

this is what we pay

     them for

for this- they get

the really

BIG BUCKS

 

for this

they went to school

for this

they ran for election

     to fix things

     to run things

     to make things right

 

so now I am relieved

that I don't have to worry

that I can relax

     and leave it to them

peace will prevail

     on earth

no one will starve

everyone will be happy

     now

 

now that the winners

     have won

-there are things to  be

      done-

 

we can relax

we are in good

     hands

 

(I believe it's called

     Hope-ee-um!)
