The National Animal Farm Rodeo !A Poem by Easter3The wild and wooly antics of Political Animal Farm Rodeos.“Ole Mitch McConnell ran an Animal Farm Ee-I-ee-heave-ho ! And on this Animal Farm He had a Barn full of Bulls (and an occasional heifer) Moo-oh-Moo-lah-oh ! They swore to break some horns here And spill some milk there Break it here - spill it there Me-oh-Me-Oh-My ! And McConnell’s Buddy Farmer Grover Norquist Lobbied the Tea Party/Republicans To Sign (in Blood) his Anti-Tax Pledge With - No Taxes here ! And - No Taxes there ! Blitz the Taxes - Nix the Taxes ! Run all over Old Battleaxes ! Pledge to push the American Economy to the very Edge Push it over the Fiscal Ledge With the Norquist Nation Destructive - No Tax Pledge ! No Fiscal Bail ! Ring-ching-ching-No Sale ! No Sale-ee-ale-ee-oh ! Then, President Obama got Re-Elected Leaving Romney, Boehner, McConnell and Norquist (and others) Bitin’ nails and ponderin’, “Why weren’t the Ruling Class Republicans selected ?” The Many stood up against the falsely Preferential and Austere Wishes Of the Almighty 1%er Few Pee-u-Pee-u-Pee-U ! We the People spoke out against Unfair Playing Fields And all too exorbitant High Yields Stolen from the meager Pockets And off of the Hard Workin’ Backs of the Middle Class And the Workin’ Poor So, We the People showed ’em the Door Seekin’ to Even the Score No More - No Less - No More ! So, now All American Eyes Are Watchin’ and Waitin’ To See Politicians politicin’ Compromisin’ and Takin‘-a-Lickin’ While tryin’ to keep the Economic Heart of the Nation a-tickin’ Tic-toc-tic-toc-ee-oh ! Yep, All of the Animals In the Nationalized American Animal Farm (that are not stampedin’ or yella‘-bellied Secedin’) Are waitin’ with baited breath While Wall Streeters tantrumin’ algorithms Bounce Up-and-Down, Side-ways And Ever-which-a-ways All mopin’, hopin’ and dysfunctionally copin’ With the Fiscal Cliff Negotiations And Revelations of Economic Escalations And Monetary Crashes and Middle Class Hesitations and Fiscal Devastations It’s a Wild West (East, North and South) Ro-dee-oh-dee-oh ! Good Luck to the Lame Duck Political Hacks and Know-It-All Quacks Tryin’ to preserve the Nationally detrimental Status Quo Obama, and his Political Minions Are stickin’ to and with their “We the People” Beliefs and Opinions So, let’s get Goin’ ! Hop aboard and get to Rodeoin’ Get ready for a long, hard Ride Get your Spurs on and Choose your Side “Cause the Animal Farm Rodeo Is on the Go ! And It promises to Be One Heck of a Wild Ro-dee-oh-dee-Show !
