Cliche Ward
john clare
Sleeping in i tuned in
to hear this droning
stammering politician
speaking in complete
cliche sentences
saying the reason
he was running was
because he retired
and he was bored
so he wanted to restore
trust in gummernent
all the way up to the
President
And somehow I
just could not bring
myself to trust his
cliches and so in
my Commission District
Four Ward where there
is no trust
my neighbor
whom I thought I did trust
has his sign displayed
so I suppose
he hopes come election
day
he will vote to have trust
restored all the way
up to the Presidency.
I roll over and hit the
snooze button
and tell myself I really
should of been a
well paid bored retired
cliched politician.
