Kakistocracy

We expect the best and brightest

Not the selfish and benighted.

Didn’t Kennedy set the bar

With Bundy, Rusk and McNamara?

Pence? It makes no sense

DeVos? I’m at a loss

Pruett? He really blew it

Barr? He went too far

I studied religion at the UC-Berkeley and have been interested in the spirit ever since. I try to give my poems a spiritual aspect whenever possible.
