dysfunctional US POlitics Blues


Dysfunctional U.S. Politics Blues




I'd like to start my day
by watching the Morning News
while drinking
a snarling hot
fully loaded cup of coffee
but after a while
the news got to me
and I get the political blues

watching politicians
and leaders behaving badly
putting partisan interests
ahead of the country

Te recent example
of the U.S. House of Representatives
voting out their speaker
for the crime of cooperating
with the Democrats
to avoid a costly
Government shut down

and then not selecting
a new speaker
for almost two weeks

risking a real
government shutdown

amid the on-going wars
in the Middle East
and Ukraine

wildfires
monster storms

crisis on the southern border

all which demand
robust Federal government
intervention
and lots of money


it's just more proof.
that American politics
is totally dysfunctional.

at the end of the day
I turn off the TV.
and put in some music.


and then go for a walk.
with my wife
after dinner drink some wine

and unwind by watching K dramas.
with the love of my life by my side
forgetting for a moment
the total dysfunctional politics
in both the U.S., Korea,
and the entire planet.
