AN ELECTION TALE

We are in a time of DEPLORABLE HOMBRES
They'll be no winners no matter what anyone says.

Somewant to say our system is rigged
While others hope to come up big.

October is almost over and I want my surprise
To discredit the other each one tries.

Here's what is in store for ya
Democracy is the biggest loser.

THE TRAIL OF A SNAIL

NEIGHBORS BRACE FOR UNION HOSPITAL’S CLOSING

A stitch in time may save nine

But more dollars make everything fine.

Follow the money and now you may move slow

At the risk of your health, here you'll no longer go.

Stuck in traffic will be the norm,

Don't worry, cadavers don't have to be kept warm.

So if there's a crisis you may not live

All because Partners has no F---'s to give.

STRATEGIC VOTING

STALEMATE OVER CITY ELECTION COMMISSIONER JOB CONTINUES

Getting more people to vote is clearly the objective

On this matter Judy tends to be selective.

For the ones that already do

Higher salaries it is true

Their loyalty buy

So why on earth would she try

To bring in somebody new

Her re-election to screw.

DIRTY DEEDS DUG DIRT FREE

GROUP GETS DOWN AND DIRTY TO CLEAN LYNN

When a community comes together

To improve their lives for the better

Some gave a donation

In order to proceed with beautification.

When city hall does abandon

Best work is done in tandem.

So with a little work you give

Makes your neighborhood a better place to live.

 

A CRIME OF THE TIMES

POLICE INVESTIGATING LYNN SHOOTING

High home sales
While our safety fails.

Left to pity
The state of our city.

Don't buy the spin
The cause is jobs coming in.

Look at the news and shout
"The reality is people want out!"

CONVENTIONAL WISDOM

DNC KICKS OFF IN PHILLY

Friends are everywhere but hard to find
In a city full of siblings with a rivalry unkind.

Held in the birthplace of an unfinished revolution
With promises of answers for a final solution.

Democracy has always been a distant, faint mirage
To provide for the chains a neat little camoflage.

A CONVENTION OF CHAOS

PHILLY LOOKS TO TRUMP GOP

History we will make
If baggage we take.

A matter of trust
Cause power we lust.

Given no choice to chose
Freedom to lose.
