Have you noticed the sameness of politicians worldwide?
Of course, all are highly devious and snide,
Self-serving, is a “quality” that comes to mind,
Hypocrisy, because their electorate they claim to find
Top of the list in their decision making mind
Yes, indeed, they undoubtedly are the same
All of them, always adroitly avoiding blame
Should they happen to make a decision courageous,
Don’t worry, such a thing happens so rarely it’s not contagious.
If criticism they happen to get,
It’s always “politically motivated” and yet,
How can a past dalliance with a floozy,
Contribute to criticism from the politically choosy.
