The Current Political Season



In our current political season
I'm fearful for Uncle Sam
Diatribe persuades more than reason
And is used like a battering ram

A game of slanderous one-up-man-ships
Where truth loses out to invective
False promises used as bargaining-chips
To gain power, it's hidden objective

Uncle Sam's nephews and nieces
Be fearful of their ruthless spiels
If their grab for power increases
Farewell to our founder's ideals

It is much the same hear in the u k , Stan. A case of looking after number one.The gathering storm , when day and night can not be separated from the dawn , and midnight. that hour before the brake of day , seems to be a long long way of.
