He said he cared
About us
About the homeless
About the elderly
Did he really?
He showed plans
To build housing
To fix roads and bridges
To lower taxes for the poor
Were they real?
He visited
Old people homes
Hospitals
Schools
What for?
It was only for show
TV news sound bites
Newspaper coverage
Twitter followers
Did it work?
To get re-elected
He lied
He cheated
He deceived
He got re-elected!
How much longer will we pay
For a seat in this circus
Before the clowns make us realize that
It is all mirrors and smoke
