Indeed like a cat observing all about,
it's enough to make a sane person scream and shout.
The way I see it I say fire them all,
and take what personal items they have today for humanity has come to call .
Many eyes are upon you and the lies no longer are heard,
we can see with our own eyes how you have broken your word .
You lived high on the hog and took from our babes mouths,
so it's your time buddy to pay it all back now.
No more than one car and one house allowed ,
and the bank accounts you were so proud of is all our now.
Places you own across the world a pink slip we shall now own,
and get some honest hard working people in government and bring this country home .

i like where you took this
it was a good way of tring to put your emotions into it.
i thought that you did a good job with the prompt
thank you so much for entering
and good luck -
I agree! It's time all share what America has to offer instead of just a few. The ones who work the hardest and do the dirtest jobs get paid the least. This is so unfair.
Just like when a job hires new employees they start at the wages a person whom has worked fifteen years has just been raised too.
A shame I say, a crying shame, that man(woman) regarless of race and ect..., will never be treated as equals. Very good right. thanks for sharing. Rose

AMEN
Great political commentary! I almost didn't know what it was, but you really clinched it with that ultra strong thesis at the end. I feel this, man. Great work.

So much truth in this one. If they limited the politician on what he could have then we would probably have mostly those that really want to work for this country. Nice flow and rhythem.

SO TRUE!!!
I am all for anyone making an honest living but our governments the world over have way to far. Taxes are now for them and their personal accounts. They also hire others to do their job and they take months out of a year for vacations. There is no honesty in that! They were elected to represent us not to take our money and use it personally. I would laugh if they could live on what most of us make
I would like to see them do it. No more extra cars, meals paid for with our taxes, actually why do we pay so much when we get back so little that helps us. From a business standpoint the common people are making a terrible business choice, giving and not getting back any return on their investment. Big business doesn't operate this way so why should we.

Straight to the Point
Wonderful striaght talking. As John Wayne would say "Shooting Straight From the Hip" LOL You should send this one to Washington. Maybe it will stir them up to see how us common folks feel. Great Job and Good Luck in the contest. Might I suggest you change Beliefe to Belief of did you mean Believe in your title, all else is perfection. God Bless, Jo-Ann

Hmmm... It makes you think.

Nice, I liked it alot it just shows so much anger to make the wrong right. Only one thing didn't feel to fit, the last line was a bit too long (might just be me) It's the most beautiful line, though.
