SLAVERY

Tristan Robert Lange

States’ rights trump sanity while
Losing morality in the rapture of relevancy;
Aborted protections for female freedoms
Vehemently and vacuously
Enforced by paragons of pomposity
Reestablishing their phallic fraternity.
You are all they have left to control.

    I do believe you are not that keen on the result of a recent election......πŸ‘

    • Tristan Robert Lange

      I do believe you absolutely correct! 6 more to come in this series! I have a few things to say! LOL! πŸ˜‰ Thanks for reading and the feedback, my friend! πŸ–€β€οΈπŸ–€πŸ™

      Powerful and brilliantly written. I cannot believe how so many have been tricked by empty promises, I'd gladly eat my words dear Tristan if I'm wrong, but I am with all those who are dreading the next month's and years of this incredibly ugly man. 🌹

      • Tristan Robert Lange

        I'll gladly eat mine too, but we've seen the first four years and NOTHING indicating he's changed. These, I fear, may be dire times we are heading into. Time will tell. Thank you so much, Teddy, for your time and thoughts. Here's praying we are both wrong, my friend! πŸ‘πŸŒΉπŸ–€β€οΈπŸ–€

        • Teddy.15

          I truly hope for you and for the world that we are wrong, let's hope something has changed him into doing right things for a country and not for fame or for worse to trigger wars, we all saw his last 4 years what came after changed our world forever. Enough said. 🌹

          • Tristan Robert Lange

            Truth! My hopes are the same!

                  Who does Orange Man answer to?
                  Who does Woke Woman answer to?
                  The Mosquito Mafia have left plenty of clues

                    Thank you for your time reading and commenting. πŸ™

                    It's funny--sad rather-- to see what the country is supposed to stand for all slip away.

                    • Tristan Robert Lange

                      I concur! It really is sad and scary. Thank you so much for reading and commenting my friend. πŸ–€β€οΈπŸ–€πŸ™

                      an excellent choice of vocabulary to describe certain recent events and probable perceived future eventualities .. me ma told me to never wish my time away but I so hope the next 4 years go by quick .. am so glad we appear to be on the same side Tristan .. Neville πŸ‘

                      • Tristan Robert Lange

                        Yes. I am glad of that too, my friend. I know not everyone sees it this way, but I have to be clear about who I am and where I stand in all of this. I was inspired, and am about to publish the next in the series! Thank you for reading and commenting my friend! πŸ–€β€οΈπŸ–€πŸ–€
