thinking presidential

i am hearing a slight buzz
of an election for the prez

i hope i get to vote
to exercise my role
of civic responsibility
to give plain democracy
a needed boost
in the bust

it'll all come to naught
if only one is caught
and no contest is fought
the gloves are hung up
the execution of the upper cut
starved and warded

please some one
feel yourself invited
even if no invitation card
is sent to you
to attend the tea party

dont sniff at droppage's request
yours is more than a test
yours is more than a contest
its even more that a quest

yours is not only what a man
or only a woman can be

yours is not a default
yours is not a representation
yous is our representative
yours is ours
