Voting without aggravation...

rew4er2nail

Otherwise known as

absentee ballot/ mail-in ballot

if ye read no further... please exercise

opportunity to cast ballot

obviously freedom to choose,

but take serious stock of human bondage

(desperately calling out

for their Maugham me)

regarding: economy, integrity, monetary, xyz...

 

Anyway, twas quite

pleasurably comfortably seated

cerebrally assessing optimal choice(s),

carefully using dark ink

to designate candidate(s) on roster

without being inconvenienced

versus scouting out parking space,

doubly troubled with meteorologic curse

as weather turns severely inclement,

subsequently wading thru

still waters that move deep

(cue electorate getting

splashed courtesy angry driver)

finally standing in long line

closely resembling infinite jesting

looping Möbius strip.

 

Throughout mine voting career nsync

back then a whopping $2.30 =

Pennsylvania minimum wage

ohm eye dog...!

I teetotaler shied away alcoholic usage

wine not axe else questions,

who experienced tutelage?

 

Extreme social distancing stage

then identified as introvertedness,

sublimating any rage

me i.e. wallflower never invited to party,

thus remain shtup in boyhood bedroom

when chronology equaled quarterage

compared to present orbitz around sun

now... still smarting - essentially

never made psychological pilgrimage

to adulthood, oh for sure parents

found withdrawn behavior (mine) an outrage

depriving yours truly natural

linkedin interpersonal discovery(ies)

emotionally shortchanging me – noncoverage

replaced with buffering self in isolation

yea... kinda like quarantine mirage

minus coronavirus - COVID-19

never learning/mastering dating language

hence... alone within

mine emotional wilderness

analogous to Matthew

 

Scott Harris's private hermitage

20/20 hindsight heart wrenching gauge

long haired pencil necked

hippy caricature just a lad

dinned during rosy 1960's flowerage,

reaping what I did sow

with rusty and fragile equipage.

 

Metaphorical three strikes disadvantage,

nonetheless below shows initial POTUS,

spouses (FLOTUS), plus

respective vice presidents

upon me attaining

legal Pennsylvania voting age.
