An Observer of Life in Bad Poetry

The brow beating frenzy has continued since inauguration day

“You will toe the line and you will obey”

The best way for people to do as they’re told has been used by the military for years

First you break a person completely down so taking orders will be the course he steers

Immediately put the pandemic fear in everyone. Keep showing the number of daily deaths and let all know they could be next

Track people by watching who takes the jab and who objects

Then force employers to mandate the vaccine or you’ll lose your job

Scream loudly about every naturally occurring variant and encourage the drama queen hysterical mob

Close the schools and keep the children muzzled and afraid

It took America the better part of two years to realize they were played

But that also meant, due to enforced regulations, a lot of middle class businesses went bust

Everything was good, said the man on the camera as long as you obeyed and in him you could trust

So you lost your life’s work, wore your mask, and did what you were told

But the kids weren’t dying, the masks were proven ineffective, and the boosters oversold

Now those lousy middle classers were hollering about empty store shelves and the price of hamburger meat and crackers

We couldn’t hide the inflation numbers from the peoples’ wallets, so we blamed the meat packers

Suddenly it’s only eight months to get this thing done

So let’s push Putin into rolling into Ukraine and blame the insane gas prices on Russia instead of who’s really holding the smoking gun

Smugly state that at six bucks a gallon, how does that electric car look to you?

Frankly, it looks like you may have bitten off more than you can chew

Because in just a few short months your warped vision of untold payola and your small pack of a woke mob

Will be blocked on every proposal and in three years you’re out of a job

You’ll be cursed by today’s children and grandchildren for having to shoulder your ever expanding debt and for treating their parents like pond scum

And leave behind a legacy that will be scorned by future politicians and historians for generations to come
