Colored

Belay your boasts
of conjuring ghosts
I’ll take a swipe
at all the hype
and taint your toasts
with one small gripe

there was no test
to prove he’s best
despite his grin
what got him in:
the heart in his chest
or tint of the spin?

    It's always been about the spin
    Rather than what's right
    What bothers most, is not the ghosts
    But a tint that's less than white!

    Doing what's right
    while very commendable
    may not always be the best plan
    black or white
    we need someone dependable
    and I hope Barack is that man.


    Jo, hi and thanks a lot

    Hey Gerald you flatter me with your over assessment of my poetical prowess but I won't argue ;)
