POLITICIANS

by Cletus Hardiman - Sagittarius

A democracy--that's what they call it,
But, we all know that is a joke! ! 
For only a small percentage
will go to the polls and vote.
I guess they feel like I do...
All politicians are mere rooks,
So, why should I go waste my time,
to pick the lesser of the crooks !

Reason for writing:

    Is there anyone that is not fed up with the lies of politicians....they promise what the "people" want to hear, and then get into office, and look out for # 1, with "under-the-table" deals, and they will cast their vote, not for the people but, for what will feather their nest the most....

Let me know what you think of my articles....Thanks !
