Leader

Oh for a leader
Worth following,
Unpretentious and
Honest someone with
Good character who does
The right thing like Abe Lincoln
Who when some puffed up
Person in power walked
In on President Lincoln
Blacking his own pair
Of boots exclaimed
Mr. President you
Are blacking
Your boots!
Lincoln
Replied yes,
Whose boots
Do you blacken?
I was raised to respect
Manual labor to see the honor
In sweat equity and the value of
An honest days work so why
Does anyone want to vote
For a narcissistic buffoon
Who is rude selfish and
Thinks political party
Trumps what is
Best for the
American
People?
Oh for
A more
Discerning
Citizen who
Sees through
The half-truths
Because they read
History not propaganda.
Oh for a return to good old
Fashioned American
Common sense
And faith in
Working
Folks
Not the
Wealthy.
Middle and
Working class
Sons and daughters
Guard America from harm,
Not the pampered kids of the
Wealthy who would sell out
America to secure their
Wealth in a New
York minute.
Wake up!
Read
History
Not hysteria.
A good leader
Is Andrea Merkel
Not some trumped
Up American
Version of
Mussolini.
