I don’t think I can take it

Certainly can’t fake it

Accosted by a maga

Don’t they even havea

Clue as I’m quiet, views I’m not sharing

Not topped by the red hat they are wearing

I don’t think I can take much more

I turn my back but it’s getting sore

Pelted by their lies and junk

It’s America, I used to thunk.

Imagine if you will, there is a teenage boy, ready for Halloween, dressed as a pirate with a scarf wound around his forehead and a gold earring dangling from one ear. A huge fake sapphire necklace adorns his bare chest, hoping to sway his colleagues to join in his costume ruse as they all trudge on a footpath to the pavilion, each hoping to win the “best costume” prize.

An abrupt sidestep by the boy as he confessed his parents didn’t know he was there. The old “I’m sleeping over with a friend” tact had worked once again. Funny, he thought to himself that parents still fall for that.

The crowd was large and everyone was milling around showing off their costumes while volunteer judges drifted through the crowd making notes on their clipboards.

Joe thought even if he did win, he’d have to leave his pirate gear and the prize at Mike’s house, hoping he wouldn’t scarf down the treat basket or more on point, take advantage of Joe’s hoping-to-be-girlfriend who handed out the prizes.

“My stomach is tied up in knots” he exclaimed, folding his hands over his midriff. “I don’t think we can afford it and my classes are going to increase this coming semester!”

“Don’t be such a worry wart, we’ll get by just like we do now. Marriage vows between us won’t change anything financially. Besides, I just found out this morning I received an additional grant that will help.”

“I don’t think it’s just finances, sweetheart…”

You may think your bold persona

Strutting your cannon of lies

But there’s still some among us who aren’t so easily bowled

The canons of law will be your demise that justice will uphold.

Dancing the little two step, sliding back and forth
Makes me wonder if you ever tell the truth
A man’s worth his word, a quote I heard somewhere
Doesn’t seem to apply in today’s world everywhere
Say what you mean, mean what you say, and don’t renege, is big!

I looked in the kitchen but it wasn’t there

I looked on the steps up and down stairs

I thought I’d searched the whole house as it’s small

But found it tacked on the wall in the hall.
