A Unique Debate

He is seventy two and older than atom bomb.
He is in forties, and heading for a history.
He has fought a war, and now seated in a coliseum.
He has composed the new song of change.

His supporters spread lies, ignorance, and hatred.
His followers will bring a change.
He is ready to take any path to dupe the mass.
He has composed the new song of change.

A proud single mom, new age symbol,
is the trump card in his campaign.
She would tax exempt the beauty queens
and mascaras, wigs, eyeliners, and hipsters.

He has a trusted seasoned man pitted
to fight the waning symbol of sex appeal.
He will pump greed and delusion.
He will have to clean the blood stains.

He is seventy two and older than atom bomb.
He is in forties, and heading for history.
He has fought a war, and now seated in a coliseum.
He has composed the new song of change.

The contrasts are right on...
and hold out the promise of real change.

Points very well made, Debs. Thank you. My sincerest best wishes for the results of the coming elections (both in Canada and in the U.S) to bring much needed change. Love and peace,

Regis

Wow. That was fantastic. Comparing the two candidate side by side making you think which is best. I was undecided before, now I really am.
