T'was the night before elections
And all through the town
...
Tempers were flaring
Emotions all up and down
I, in my bathrobe
With a cat in my lap
Had cut off the TV
tired of political clap-trap
When all of a sudden
There arose such a noise
I peered out my window
Saw Obama and his boys
They had come for my wallet
They wanted my pay
To give to the others
Who had not worked a day!
He snatched up my money
And quick as a wink
Jumped back on his bandwagon
As I gagged from the stink
He then rallied his henchmen
Who were pulling his cart
I could tell they were out
To tear my country apart!
'On Fannie, on Freddie,
On Biden and Ayers!
On Acorn, On Pelosi'
He screamed at the pairs!
They took off for his cause
And as they flew out of sight
I heard him laugh at the nation
Who wouldn't stand up and fight!
So I leave you to think
On this one final note-
IF YOU DON'T WANT SOCIALISM
GET OUT AND VOTE !!!!

Odie - you find the best stuff.
ReplyDeleteThanks Supi, I let you in on a little secret. I have an army out there looking for me.
ReplyDeletePop some popcorn, crack open a ginger ale and watch FOX for the results.
ReplyDeleteI vote by mail, which is to say that I voted a week ago. One can only hope that it does some good and that we can pull the ship off the rocks.
Good luck this time round Odie, will be praying for the right outcome...but if our experience with Tony Blair and labour are anything to go by you'll get him back again...I sinceely hope not for you and the rest of the world
ReplyDeleteGood stuff Odie.
ReplyDeleteRE: LL,
Popcorn and Ginger Ale? Pizza and beer around my abode, this thing is bigger than the Super Bowl.
Good one, Odie. I will share it on TCL FB. Get Out The Vote!!!!
ReplyDeleteThat made me crack a smile at 8:00 in the morning. (Not a small feat.)(And yeah, it hurt.) I'll agree with LL and break out the popcorn and ginger ale on election night. I've already voted too.
ReplyDeleteLL, I also vote by mail. I mailed mine in on Monday. I'll bet our ballots looked a lot alike.
ReplyDeleteIndy, we have two more years of "him" I'm afraid. But, we're trying to pull the rug out from under him by changing everything else.
ReplyDeleteChristopher & LL ... right on! Here it will be Beefeater and pretzels and cheese ... and a lot of yelling.
ReplyDeleteLady, you keep changing your avatar, but I must say you're as beautiful as ever.
ReplyDeleteEuripides, It looks like all the votes that count have been sent in already.
ReplyDelete8:00, my goodness man. I'm laughing you by 5:00 AM ... a little play on words.
Excellent. Poetic.
ReplyDeleteThe unknown author thanks you Opie.
ReplyDeleteGreat poem! I'll be enjoying refreshments as the results roll in on election night also.
ReplyDeleteTeresa, I always have to put the refreshment down to grab a snack. I don't want to uncross my fingers.
