POEM: Going “Hi”

I suspect that the emotional lure of beating our political enemies at their own warped games, in a raze to the bottom, is often more than enough to overwhelm whatever maturity and enlightened views helled by our respective clans. The base of politics is far too reliably about sects and violence…

Going “Hi”

“When they go low, we go high” – Michelle Obama

“Never argue with a fool, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.” – Mark Twain

When they go low
We go “hi”
Hitting that bottom
And digging it
Thinking just
Buy way of
Bedrock™
Welcome to
Yabba Dabba Doo!
Mine, mine, mine
Drill, baby, drill!
Schooled in falsely equivalent slogans
Like “awe of the above”
As keep shoveling it
Out of the weigh
That common ground
As thou dust
Miss takin’
As sum kind
Of way laid
Taking won’s time
Chiseled into
Sum Sisyphean limbo
As if
Having
Discovered
A perpetual motion machine
The sweet siren song of taking
That sociopath
Swing low
Sweet cherry it
Coming for
Get carried away
Gravely digging it
Redefining what
Base meant
