Me? Rant? You'll Need a Chair...

by Reese Turner

The author has placed a warning on this post for language.

May I have the floor to rant about our taxes?
I’m payin’ too much and thems be the factses!
Taxes to cities, states, counties and schools -
With power to tax us, they treat us like fools.

Big government is worst, I really must say,
Plus, now with no borders to guard our USA.
Sure, y’all come on in, illegals, terrorists, too,
Child molesters and crooks; I’m tellin’ you!

Wanna know what else sure bothers me?
The war being waged ‘bout electricity;
Shut down power plants, but promote EV cars?
I’ve heard more common sense spoken in bars!

On the other hand, no more cookin’ on gas?
We should loudly protest stupid en masse!!!
And, don’t get me started on all voting by mail
That’s a great way to watch pure chaos prevail.

The America I once knew is just fading away
I still love you, just don’t understand, dear USA.

Write a Poetic Rant contest entry

You bet! That's me. Sailor boy from circa 1970. To balance my rants, I thought I might show my history of patriotism. I still stand and salute when our flag passes. But, but, but, I am not happy at all with the way the current fools are managing our affairs - from cities, schools, states and, worst of all, our country. DO ME A FAVOR, PLEASE. If you like my poem, please share with liberal friends. No, it won't change their mind, but it will ruin their day.
