"If you're trying to change minds and influence people it's probably not a good idea to say that virtually all elected Democrats are liars, but what the hell."
A poem I wrote for my wife has a similar reference in one stanza. It's a tribute reflecting on several decades together. Something I do for her birthdays instead of spending money on something she doesn't need and won't use or wear.
It's a vers libre with little attention to cadence . . . just imagery:
"Cool pillow on a warm summer night Hot dinner on a cold winter day Fresh t-shirt after a tough job Warm puppy after a harsh hasty word"
What I'm thinking.
