ELECTION REFORM

With re-election so obsessed,
Our Congress has so little time;
By moneyed interests are possessed,
Though bribery is still a crime.

Chicanery becomes a game,
With pious statements on the way;
Just campaign funding is its name,
But money still will have its day.

Reform they shun just like a plague,
It may advantages reduce;
Therefor their clauses are so vague,
So they can play it fast and loose.

Free speech is now a new decoy,
They'll grasp at any new excuse;
PR men all of them employ,
Such lofty phrases they produce.

Please listen not to what they say,
So smoothly they prevaricate;
Reform won't come till Judgement Day,
In Heaven will we have to wait.
