Dressed to thrill... - Views in verse



Dressed to thrill...
Wouldn’t it be good
For once in our lives
To see something really interesting 
Come out of Canberra
Hopes are high
For overdue decisions
But alas…once more ‘anathema’
Although, for a change:
Near lost my head
As I saw the footage
And my chin hit the desk with a thump
When at the mid-winter's ball
Malcolm in such polished form
Dazzled as Donald Trump
Upon reflection
Do we expect too much
Of our bumbling elected few...
What's in it for them to gain?
When you weight it all up
Their mission quite simply in their own eyes
Is they're there to entertain’!!!
(How could we have the gall to judge them so harshly?)
From my desktop Grahame J Flynn Views in Verse
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Midnight Oil's ...just another day at the office:
"Knife's Edge"
On a knife edge razor day
If you listen long enough they've got nothing to say
It's a time warp place don't change
The rhythm of the night, the beating rain
You move fast to get off of that merry-go-round
There's one gun, probably more
And the others are pointing at our backdoor
At the best hotel of all
Put my name on the wall, put my bed on the floor
You get much less well it seems like more
Heart's still sore
Word crimes
Bitter lies
Bitter crimes
Government Lies
PS: maybe we can even forgive Peter all these years later ...now there's an entertainer!
