Cooked
An ode to election season
Election season is here and I gave it a look, but close the ballots and books because the country is cooked.
No opinion is worthless, but every time you turn on this political news all I see is a circus.
One side’s bathed in a personality jerk. The other side gains support in the form of a twerk.
He say, she say, we say, they say. Responsibility level? A baby with an AK.
What’s the future of the nation? It’s too bleak to tell. The whole country has become an episode of SNL.
Whether left or the right, I don’t think anyone is left in this fight. The future ain’t lookin to bright.
If you love your country take a good look. It’s Armageddon from here on the election is cooked.

Nice one ,Kamala Harris is all I got
I know I have no say, but I like Kamala. The orange thing, not so much. The media circus is madness, though. You're right. Great poem!
I HEAR YOU! You know I am voting for my Cali girl Kamala Harris. I am content with that choice.
