Poetry Break: “Do I Need Your Permission to Piss Politicians?”

Do I Need your Permission to Piss Politicians?

You scold us you politico hypocrites for gathering as humans
then you threaten to fine us
we don’t follow your undemocratic orders under the guise of emergency orders for the public interest
the interest you fucked up knowing full well the warning of SARS and recommendations made
no surprise as you also ignored countless warnings about the morass of long term care
perhaps your edicts have wisdom
but why edicts in the first place
because you had your chance politicians to avoid all this suspension of liberties
and we have to pay the price for your historical incompetence
and listen to the sickening toady media urging
24/7 about untested vaccinations as the saviour of the world
The Fifth Estate with the integrity of a turd
supposedly informing us as a herd

Ruminating this on a walk on a public trail I confess it’s time to piss
but you’ve locked all washrooms for public safety
so where do I go?
