My neighbor's parties

sorenbarrett

Two parties one to the right one to the left

on the right in suites covering bodies of greed

they say they are right the other is deft

on the left beggars smoking weed

 

On the right alcohol the course

on the left Robbin Hood hands out stolen loot

son of a donkey and a horse

the other an elephant in an army boot

 

what is left is against god, and gun

funny the right wants to cut rights against theft

the right says out of their ass shines the sun

sadly the left is all that's left

          An accurate description of our political machine. It seems one side wants to divide and conquer while the other to unite. The question is where does the truth lay, or should I say lie. Brilliant!

                if this is from a political perspective
                I have this feeling you might be write .. but if you are referring to your own neighbourhood or closer to home, you make me realise how lucky I am ..

                  Ambiguity is always a good tool except in interpersonal relations. Thanks Neville for the read and the comment it is most welcome.
