This was a composite with various people on politics.

Dave


Well Mr Prime Minister
We’ve stifled all the talk
All speak as one
What is your next thought

Well Mr Senator
How is your new plant
Congratulations on your election
How much was that grant

Well Mr Congressman
I see a new face
Took a long time
Well it was a friendly race

Well Mr Lawyer
You are the Judge
We Senators are here for guidance
And the President here for fudge

Well Dr Sir
We abide your very word
From a hot country
Well bugger that I’ve heard

Well Father Priest
did the church reach its goal?
Will money kill the Beast,
will it save my immortal soul?

Well Mr.Officer
so we meet again.
I have been wondering
of late,are you foe
or friend?

Well then, mr. poet,
you've made the words all ryme.
At times this can be harder,
and seems to take more time.

But what is more important,
is what is being said.
At the risk of losing ballence,
we lose the point instead.

Thanks Eric but you have a more gentle way of making a point.

Yours is probably the one that gets remembered.

thanks

Dave
