RKS Poetry Anthology (All We Get Are The Coffee Grinds): POLITICIANS Do I Need Your Permission to Piss? (COVID MEMORIES)

POLITICIANS Do I Need Your Permission to Piss? (COVID MEMORIES)

You scold us politico hypocrites for gathering as humans

Then you threaten to fine us

We don’t follow your undemocratic orders all under the guise of emergency orders for the public interest

The interest that you fucked up knowing full well the warnings 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 the chance as politicians to avoid all these suspensions of liberties

And we had 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 on this on a walk in a public trail I confess it’s time to piss

But you’ve locked all public washrooms for public safety

So where do I go?

Should I urinate in my pants

And you go on a victory dance?
