Republican Debate
The same flat, stale, and unprofitable
(but to the golden vile) ideas. Repeat-
ing them here would weary a saint.
At any rate, Each wrought
“debater” anxiously burns
to shoot forth a brand,
however zany, but
their numbers militate against such.
Any question serves like shaking
a bottle of soda. Distant talking points
foam over. These, too, at bottom, never
worked and never will. But the essence
of politics is pretending
they will and always have.
The experts later parsing
can’t bring themselves to say it's
all of it a base and joyless farce,
turning mountebank
in lending it credence.
