Higgledy-piggledy
Public, John Q.
voted for this mess and
gave it no thought:
just what would happen
when truth lost its way
and no ticket back
could be bought.
Higgledy-piggledy,
Mrs. Q. Public
regurgitated her
poor husband’s pablum,
cut off her nose and
destroyed her good looks;
that’s what you get
when you don’t read books.
Higgledy-piggledy
Mr. and Mrs.
bought all the lies they were told,
and elected
a king and a savior,
to keep them from thinking
they needed integrity
to be respected.
