One year from now how will this news be spun?

My guess is that Trump, assuming he won,

Would say that he saved us from disaster…

He alone could do it, he’s the master!

But if Harris wins, a different story…

Why wasn’t it better? That’s no glory!

I had the big privilege of knowing Steve

He’s the sort of guy that’s hard to believe.

Truly compassionate, he turned his cheek

But in no way at all did he seem meek.

Driven so hard to right the world’s wrongs

The White House was really where he belongs.

At first it seems like it’s kind of funny
Birds holding grudges, I mean that’s money.
But turns out they really destroy people’s lives!
Dive bombing and pecking with beaks like knives.
Tormenting their targets with Hitchcock fears
They will hold grudges for 17 years!

As we enter this week before the vote

Let’s all remember we’re in the same boat

And showcase some moments from our shared past

When good news prevailed, let’s not be downcast.

So on this day in 1962

We avoided destroying the world… Yeah, phew…!

This poll was taken in order to see

How much voters care about policy.

Omitting the names of Harris and Trump

What positions would get their hearts to pump?

It turns out more think Harris’s are best

When presented in a double-blind test.

Needless to say I take delight in words

And even enjoy the linguistic turds

That carefree Gen Z’ers have invented

(Though it often makes them sound demented).

Technology spreads the new words so fast

If you don’t keep up you’ll just feel half-assed.

It is common wisdom, long cemented

Disputes among neighbors are prevented

With properly placed, very high fences.

So I shudder to think of the consequences

Of knowing too much about something so charged

As their donor history, in bright lights and enlarged.

Given the context of the appointments

Which frankly were wrapped in slimy ointments

It’s no wonder that voters have concern.

And over the years, what more did we learn?

That this current Court has exactly no qualms

With partisan rulings and dropping some bombs.

Dating these days can be quite chaotic

The choice, the speed… it makes you psychotic.

So enter the tool that business uses…

Who knew that spreadsheets could be muses?!

Enter the data, be careful with that…

Then sort the results by your favorite stat.

Don’t make assumptions and have a real talk

About anything at all, and only walk

If politics comes up, yes whisk away

Since that is the talk we have every day.

You might discover, as this writer did

That people are nice with politics rid.
