Divided LoyaltiesA Poem by Gerry LegisterPolitical parties vying for votesPolitical
problems arising in a rush, Treat the weak crush them in discreet, Pandemonium on the corners of the street. When the symphony of sobbing starts, A fleeting decline set forlorn on the
good. Smiles and laughter broken into parts Shadow of party colors unite
everywhere Unforgiving times continuously harass, The rich can pay
and carry others across.
Ruin environment face charges for
more From parliament new style of promises,
Sorrow will bring a penalty to the poor All the talk
will only lead to bloodshed. Leave divided
loyalties in a torn country, Without
identity many are waiting to be fed. With sorrow for bread and misery and enmity.
