| the conservative politician (c. 1997) Is he telling lies? Is he telling truths? Wondering what's the difference... Why does it matter drink smoke high getting high getting bery high The politician has not dreamed of these things never done these things But why are they in his room? Why do they circle his brain When he's lost in his his sick perverted dreams of women and God and sexless fantasies The clutter his room clutter his closet clutter his bathroom. Old plates with crusty old Chinese take-out found stuffed in his closet pure laziness laziness Too lazy to walk down 12 flights to the kitchen and the dishwasher and the garbage disposal The politican doesn't get his votes Because who wants to listen to the ears Which refuse to listen to you? |
