Better luck next time,
Until then take aim
At what’s lost in their budget cut’s
Capital gain
Isn’t merely our livelihoods’,
Neighborhoods’
Bane
It’s the state of our
Nationhood’s
Skin in the game
So play yours
To its strengths
Make your mark
More precisely
Be it
With a ballot
Or bullet
Politely
Propelled from the chamber
But echoing
Kansas
Still bleeding
Its greeting
Sic semper tyrannus
