Politics haiku?

You had better believe it

You are excited

 

Politics bore me.

I can’t wait for elections,

Because I don’t care.

 

I don’t go to church.

I don’t care what others do.

I keep to myself.

 

Pushing your beliefs?

Trying to legislate them?

That just isn’t right.

 

In democracy,

The problem is most people

are pretty stupid.

 

But everyone votes.

We’re told it’s our god-given right,

and we believe it.

 

Social agendas,

Take prerogative over

Actual issues.

 

Health care costs just rise,

Tax dollars are spent on war,

Everybody’s broke.

 

This America?

No responsibility.

No sacrifices.

 

We want our handout,

We enjoy being fat/lazy,

Then blame Obama

 

I sincerely hope

That on November 2nd

Pragmatism wins

 

But, well, overall

It’s going to take more than votes

To fix our problems.

 

Don’t vote for Steve King.

Just because I don’t like him

And he’s from Sioux City.

 

Hey, Roxanne Conlin,

I’m digging your sexy name.

You are attractive

 

Good ol’ Chuck Grassley,

Is going to be senator,

till the day he dies.

 

The retention vote,

was not for politicking,

don’t be a tyrant.

 

Chet Culver loves food.

He’ll be keeping the seat warm,

for Terry Branstand.

 

Iowa, I guess,

votes for the Secretary

of Agriculture.

 

Candidate Thicke?

He seems like a real nice guy

He’s getting my vote

 

State Secretary?

Reminds me of Pam Halpert —

She’s adorable.

 

Does anybody

Actually vote for that?

I highly doubt it.

 

Ignorance is bliss.

Voting is tricky business,

And things never change.

 

Community means

Coming together to thrive

Social progression

 

My mad haiku skills?

Completely exhausted, folks.

Enjoy. Stay classy.
