Yes We Can Poem by Jason Ehret
Yes We Can
The promise was in the air election night- - - the first black president and the refrain of
Yes We Can
The promise of a better economy
We worked for twenty dollars an
hour will you work for ten
Yes We Can
The promise of a free and open govenment
The NSa FBi and CIa
Free and open government is what the elite tell
us it is
Ask Assange Brietbart and Barrett
Will you grin and bare it
Yes We Can
Makes no difference if the politician is black
white red or yellow the only color that has ever
mattered is green
Can we vote for more politicians like them
Yes We Can
(08/04/2016)
Green is all that matters. Approval rates show that we are unhappy (at best) with our representatives, yet we keep putting them in office. Yes we do. An excellent commentary, Jason. Thanks
Thank you for reading and replying about my poem. Seems with your comment you really understood what I was trying to convey. Thanks once again for taking the time
You're satire is fine and welcomed But you must agree, that we Got 8 bad years of, False publicity. Excellent work, . to be remembered. Thank you.
Thank you for your comment, and welcome your opinion. I have a degree in political science have studied political systems, and politicians. I even worked on political campaigns. President Obama has his plus and minus like any other politician. If not for Obama Care my sister who suffered from cancer might not have been able to get affordable health insurance, when she was unable to work. After working on political campaigns and watching the promises broken, I have become very cynical about the process, which isn't all bad, I have never read a satirist that wasn't a cynic.8 years of false publicity, history will judge the Obama years. On the bright side Donald Trump creates his bad publicity don't need the press or the opposition party to do that. Thank you, Sandra for taking the time to read and post a comment.
