Clarion Call

 

I remember times ago
Since my age is now eighty four
I was too wrapped ‘round my ego,
Work and family, friends, you know
It’s what I felt my time was for

Yes, I did listened to the news
Subscribed to several magazines
Perused the paper, read some views
So I could flash the stuff I knew
That’s it, except for Prop Thirteen

I understand, with much to do
Or special interests eating time
It’s natural to take the view
To leave it to the gung-ho few
And politics are not your prime

But Trump has changed the world we knew
In jeopardy democracy
Except for a courageous few
The Reps enable Trump in queue
The Party of hypocrisy

So take the time to be aware
And program to participate
Help make things happen what and where
You are. Be heard by being there
And when you’re old as I, you’ll this relate
