Haiku 34
Hostages stand up,
You, your neighbor, your cousins -
All of us dumb bells.
Me, dispensable ?
Sure : old, heavy, not mobil -
Endpoint is Hospice.
Kiss reason goodby,
Divided we cannot stand -
What Constitution ?
Hey ! Give me a break.
We elected them to lead -
But, in the gutter ?
Hear hob nail boots march,
High straight leg, right arm salutes -
Seven decades past.
Financial ruin near,
Toying with World debt crisis -
Mental dwarfs that vote.
Ronald C. Downie
