Politician Promises

Politician promises 

As election night draws near

Frenzied and believing

Everything I hear

 Caught in a cause of emotion

I forget my own sense

As I scale my eyes right over

And reason leaves my fence

Good poem matey.

[Winter Red Tears]

'Forget my own sense' and 'Reason leaves my fence' both are excellent metaphors (I believe), and I'm sure most of us can relate to this. Short, but gets your point across in a very ... sharp fashion. ^ . ^

True dat! I detest the politicampaignpromisetokissmybuttyouthinkiamsostupidthatiamgoingtobuythisbsohreallythatissocooliamgoingtovoteforyousir commercials which whitewash everything and speak to nothing, yet leaves us wanting to buy that new whitening tooth paste and vote for that guy while we are out buying it! Ugh! Need a shower..
