Wrote This in 2012 never posted,
I think now is the time

The Emptiness
~~~~~~*~~~~~

there is an empty chair
that needs reoccupying
there is an empty suit
in need of refitting
there is a zero "O"
Position
Awaiting to become positive
Needs to be Trump tight.

While ragged untouchables
Thieves and brigands
take mob action
to the streets abroad
Attacking
Burning and Murdering
Americans
while sacking our embassies.

Our cowering shameless
Politicians
line up one at a time
seeking turns
in front of international
Cameras.

trying to outlie each other
with apologies making excuses
as they search for rocks
to slither under
our time is here
"Time to vote"

WE HAVE ALL THE PROBLEMS OUR NATION NEEDS, DOMESTIC AND INTERNATIONALLY ...WHAT WE DON'T NEED IS THE ADDED BURDEN OF A 'HOT HEAD' IN THE WHITE HOUSE! I AM A DEMOCRAT AND I MUST SAY THIS IS A FACT THAT I AM TERRIBLY PROUD OF THESE DAYS. I BELIEVE THAT THIS ELECTION WILL MAKE HISTORY IN THE AMOUNT OF 'CROSS-OVER' VOTES THAT WILL BE POLLED. THE BOTTOM LINE? I AM 'SO' GLAD THAT GOD IS, WAS AND EVER WILL BE IN CHARGE OF EVERYTHING! SO, NO MATTER WHAT I OR ANYONE ELSE WANTS...HIS WILL WILL BE DONE! THANKS FOR SHARING. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS

Yes, Trump will "kick ass," and there will be, "hell to pay." But what kind of lame excuses will he come up with when he makes some gross blunder? We all are flawed. We all make mistakes. And you don't think that "tight" Trump will make any? Just wait and see. What's his excuse for all the mistakes he's been making lately in his one track campaign?

Yes William, "now is the time" for sure. If you have never voted in your life, NOW is the time to pull the lever for Trump. Thanks for posting this . . .
