Cycle

Keeter C

The lesser of two evils.

One extreme leads to another’s rise.

Leader liberal or conservative, what in common?

Both use the populations tide to chip at the constitution.

What the predecessor achieved The next will use.

A road once made, in the future will again be driven.

I wish at times I was part of ignorant bliss.

Witness I must lest it be taken.

Then in the bliss I be forsaken.

When speech is Stifled no hope exist.

Be careful the paths you pave for others will take the path well worn and traveled.

    This feels like multiple poems in one, I like it. I myself have come to this awareness in politics and it’s left me in a state of political paralysis

    • Keeter C

      Thank you. It is difficult to observe and still stay upbeat.

      Wisdom in poetic form. Now what one wants to hear but what is true and clear. Watch the path you take for return you can not make.

          A familier feeling for many, politics needs a real kick up the butt these days, here I feel they all play for the same team, they just wear different colours, enjoyed the read
