SLOWLY WAKING UP

.
 Sometimes you can’t see 
 Your hand in front of you
 Which should be slapping
 Your face to wake you up
  
 We laugh at advertisements
 That give affirmation
 To behavior that is bad
 They are so cute
  
 We see hypocrisy and 
 Get in line to support it
 Because it affects one who
 Thinks differently than you
  
 We see billion dollar influence
 Causing the firing of a judge
 Of a case involving a son
 Then blown off as an oddity
  
 A president attacked for over two years
 Exonerated – no collusion
 Opposition’s continual lies
 Ignore his amazing accomplishments
  
 Employment up in all sectors
 Inclusive of women and all minorities 
 Wages increase; taxes decrease
 Soldiers given respect they deserve
  
 Regulations removed
 Economy has flourished
 Border security finally confronted
 Even though met with opposition
  
 Billions spent for those 
 Who have illegally entered
 President denied 6 billion
 To finish fencing and defending
  
 We need a slap on the face
 We must wake up to reality
 We must clean up the swamp
 They are all, both sides, our enemy
