Well, it’s twenty days and counting
But my breath I am not holding
With election tension mounting
Seems Republicans are folding
Their concern for voter turnout
Rising to a fever pitch
Exercising all the States’ clout
Casting voters off their lists
Voters who are not Caucasian
Blacks and Browns and Indians
Who embrace the wrong persuasion
Suffer their shenanigans
It’s their surest way of winning
Since they’ve nothing much to run on
Tax cuts for the rich, providing
Bupkis for the common workman
A Justice who’s Conservative
Who lied and lied while under oath
Who’s past conveyed a narrative
Repelling women and their votes
For Dems it’s still an uphill climb
With gerrymandering and all
The House this time I think is fine
The Senate’s just too close to call
10/17/18
