Code red or blue Seems faith knew neither. Playing the cards As they are dealth. I sit back and hold, Letting others assume What they may As to the hand dealt me. The room was silent, As the pot was quite high. Everyone passed, Waiting to see if I would raise. The smoke cleared And the table was empty. All had departed for home, Talking about what they had seen.

I'm holding a purple card like you, and calling on every deal. And I don't think I'll play the trump card on election day. It's really too bad we only have two choices, both rather distasteful.
