Lost are the times that brought about prosperity
Replaced by the overwhelming foreshadowed hostilities
The Minds of the citizen grow more and more dependent
Fostering entitlement and civil manner resentment
Conflicts rising among elected officials
Often stalemating over legislative dribble
The right of the citizen to make their own choices
Is robbed from their hands as the government sponge moistens
Tipping the balance from a capitalistic nation
Through unconstitutional over-reached legislation
Mandates and policy bringing forth a bleak future
Where Independence and pride are not granted but looted

Real piece here Randy. Not too into the political poems, but this is really good- I actually wrote one a week or so ago, so apparently unrest with the way things are going is not on this poets mind alone- good read, great write thanks

Thank you both for your comment.
Fred,
I always try my best to not let any political angst overflow on here and for the most part it doesn't, though I let a couple slip through. May just end up creating another blog as well on politics and political poetry..as I'm sure you're aware politics is always a catch 22 when it comes to visitors...This one though more of a acknowledgement and not to deeply political so I felt it may have been suitable on some level. I'm glad that you enjoyed this..Thanks
