Both
American Parties
There’s
federal grass that booms the White House in liberal amounts,
Yet
funny bones upon angled jaws show sermons on two mounts:
Rotating
mules on celestial degree to present tremors,
Cyprus
dwarves by local arts to steal cattle of wild emmers;
Americans
call them Democrats and Republicans now,
So
dancing teams call names with bad words in less musical pow;
U.S.A.
politicians are crayons off dynamic range,
With
vital foes on currency to simple minds pitching change:
Bill
Clinton knows hard jazz on solo beat to play his rich golf,
As
Trump mixes up hot prejudice like Japan’s Deer Rudolph;
Our
blessed hat contains these numerical votes for acceptance,
Through
avenues of thought which repair us by more susceptance.
*Unlike my dad, I don’t lose my mind on politics; I just
relate metaphors to cultures. There’s
more than one world on this planet and that fact must be respected. Did I mention two parties? “Susceptance” in mathematics is an imaginary
part of admittance, which means in plain English that it is the imaginary ways
of measuring something. Isn’t politics a
genre of pure imagination? People have
lots of imaginary ways of measuring all sorts of things.
