Two Things

 

Unique situation, of late come to pass
That’s truly outlying for democracies
No when in our history has something this crass
Beset our governing bureaucracies

Thing One is the health-care bill foisted on citizens
Senate Republicans jamming it through
A bill that’s opposed by all med institutions
Most citizens, governors, insurers too

Their main motivation comes from their rich backers
Who bought these Republicans: one thing in mind
Tax cuts they’re demanding or you’ll soon be packers
So health care is gutted to pay them in kind

Thing Two is the President’s recent behavior
Bellicose, brutish against Kim Jong-Un
No policy, strategy; couldn’t be graver
Kim labeled him “dotard”, of whom he made fun

It’s rare in democracies such irresponsiveness
To the constituency’s wish evident
It’s even more rare in political governess
That the greatest of dangers is your own President
