WHEN SHADOWS DISAPPEAR

ENHANCED INTENT

AS IF IN FLIGHT

QUEST FOR BEAUTY

SO THE OLD SHERIFF

Walked out of the courtroom

Stood on the grand marble steps

And said he was taking back the town

Seems he had torn up the menu -

Cleared a table or two of fine food & drink

Been unrepentant

Hired the best lawyers

Stared down the cameras

And used the press microphones as weapons

To attack the "justice system" & its controllers

Stood on a thousand platforms

And diced up the old thief

Until he couldn't thieve any more

And got the notice he was out

As the old queen

With her claw-like paws

Put in a life-long suck-up

Who cackled her way to the bar

To watch her fake-world power dream crumble

As the returns were absorbed

By an indolent pampered press

Turning out the vote- done.

Governing will require setting the table

And allowing Americans to eat

Their own food - free of noxious chemicals

Drive the car they choose to

Breathe free, clean air

And speak their minds

As if Americans endowed with liberty

By generations of fully committed patriots

Immune to bribery & coercion
