This New Year will age prematurely
As candidates vie for attention
Dems hope for a blue-wave election
Or better still, more a tsunami
The Reps running scared are dismayed
They could lose both the Senate and House
Their brief taste of power be lost
But wait, Putin’s entered the fray
His trolls have been feeding fake news
Concerning the investigation
Supporting the Right’s denigration
Of Mueller and FBI too
They’ll target the key Democrats
To help GOP keep control
Rep leaders, denying Vlad’s role,
Will take all the help they can get
And so I’m expecting the worst
From those disrespecting of facts
Divisive and vicious attacks
With billionaires putting the purse
