Acid Reign of Public Opinion

USA  
 ballot buffet  
 livin up to billing  
 ill informed fanatics
 find vicariously thrilling  
  
at least we`re past  
 the bullet ballet  
 disorganized nations spray  
 when it`s their turn  
 for a "Freedom" Display  
    
"dont Tread on me"?  
  L-O-L  
  They are ALL treading  
  mathematical waters  
  spreading political legs  
    
spinning hollow tangents  
 con-centrist circles  
 locate and strike that chord  
 which emits numbing resonance  
  
"Eureka!  
we`ve found a Bull-Shit panacea!"  
    
bathed in words  
 of less value than turds  
 mint conditioned minions  
 swept away in acid reign  
 of public opinion  
    
no matter what's said,  
 the theatre of war  
 where the candidate bled,  
 this Poli-Facade`s street cred  
 is  but toilet paper shred  
    
cause the format  
 developed decades ago  
 at birth inbred
 has devolved  
 functionally inept
  
promises  
  borne of conscience  
  sincerely heart-felt.....
  
cant possibly be kept
