SUPER TUESDAY 2016

by George Salamon


Distressed, on this day of democracy,
I scan the faces on TV.

Our leaders in waiting,
Puffers in full throat.

I've seen them before.
I strain to remember.

Relieved, I recall the faces
On stamps from a Banana Republic.



























George Salamon will endure the long remainder of the presidential campaign in St. Louis, MO.
