Yogi Berra said “The future
Ain’t what it usta be”
Shortsighted myopic unilateralism blurry focus
Washington DCeption astigmatic faulty vision
American XS hazy lazy-unfair priorities
Fat cat tax cut-and-dried a-bomb-in-nation
Mushrooming federal budget nuclear warmonger
Buck passers parachuting greenback gurus
“You can” yoga Yogi remarked
“Observe lots just by watching”
Flagrant abuse humiliating unjust inexactitudes
Not to mention Social Insecurity
“It’s tough to make predictions
Especially about the uncertain future”
Taking the debasing low road
Off-course detour from all-American superhighway
Peaceful resolution perfect 20:20 insight
Leftist Rights vis-à-vis Uncivil Wrongs
Unified Inclusion not Divisive Exclusion
Fast-forward Progress overtaking Time-warped Regression
