Letter to the editor: Rapping up a commentary

Got fossil fuel

AK’s

A MAGA chip on my shoulder

Let’s me smolder

Be bolder

Brass balls bigger than a monkey’s

Fueling fake news junkies

I can go left or go right

There just for the fight

Don’t ask me to care

Or really be aware

In it for ‘likes’

And access to mics

Politics is entertainment

Show up for the arraignment

But just as a claimant

Make a cross fingered statement

Then back to where I came

With zero sum gain

And absolutely no shame

But I will never refrain

From bellowing my claim

Of plenty others to blame

As I name names

So

Do we continue to sustain

Or will we step up and complain.
