I’m Voting
I’m voting for
"None of the Above"
Like god needs my vote
Right?
It’s not that I don't care
It’s the he doesn't care
With god, there is no democracy
It’s a dictatorship
There’s only lies
False promises
Murder and violence
People don't matter
They are all expendable
As are their rights
Even the god given ones
How can I vote for god?
He’s lied
He’s killed
He’s abused
He’s M.I.A
And all he wants is
My loyalty
My bowed head
My bent knee
And my money
Hey!
Just like Clinton
Or Trump
Still;
I am voting for
"None of the Above"
Absolutely nobody
On this page
None of them

you already write awesome poems of power and sadness and beauty. Rage will unfortunately come - I wasn't able to connect with my rage properly and on my terms until I was 52 years old - it was in there but I could not safely let it out - Once it's out it definitely helps - don't worry about it you are already an excellent poet, that's what counts :-)
