     Full Moon Nights

The wily man is contesting polls
The wherewithal has arrived timely
Hanging that winsome smile
He’s begging for votes with folded hand
He doesn’t mind a wonky chair
Or vituperative words of the opponent
He chuckles and tames the werewolf
 Within him and waits with patience
After the win he’s ready to welcome
 Full moon nights that each day will bring

  12. I liked the begging for votes with a folded hand - the same in Canada, in the States and likely many other places....sigh.
