Strongly Worded Poem by RIC BASTASA

Strongly Worded



STRONGLY worded
the good men did nothing
and so evil triumphed,

well said on that day of
our independence,

after clutching all those six years
the bad men flourished,
crime rates
fly like black birds in the skies,

and all the bad men laughed and
those caught in the national penitentiary
continue with their air-conditioned rooms
spa and sauna, and money
and high tech cellphones,

did you say you did well?

we had given you the chances
and everything
yet nothing has changed.

we voted for that man whom you
call bad, murderer, and
dictator, because you never
did well,

now, do not tell us whom to
choose, because we chose you
in the past and nothing
happened.

STRONGLY worded, you have
to shut up
because you never
put up

now, move out and
let another one
take the reigns
of this country with
a lot of wild horses
and beasts.

Again, we wait,
take a look and
vote again,
after another six long
years.

STRONGLY WORDED, we have no faith
in you anymore.

Goodbye sadly...
