Election Haiku, 2nd Ed.

Our expectations

Of our leaders sink lower.

How low can they go?

*

Best country ever.

For rich people, that is. Not

So much for others.

*

Female candidate

Winks and won’t answer questions

And this is progress?

*

If the worst happens

Find joy as you are able;

Hang on for dear life.

*

Civil war, world wars

Our country survived them. Now

McCain may kill it.
