Cliques And Clacks - ON WRITING AND RUNNING

Cliques and clacks
And wayward hacks
Will segregate
And designate
Whose in front
And whose in back
Let us be judged
By the strength of heart
And the content of character
Ups and downs
And beltway clowns
Can categorize
And ostracize
Where we stand
And who we are
Let us celebrate
Our unique beliefs
And revel in diversity
Red and blue
And who hates who
There is no moral high ground
We’re human after all
Let’s conversate
Avoid debate
Just keep an open mind
And listen for the moment
Them and us
Can we discuss
Our lot in life
What's our status
In the social stratus
‘Cause fear leads to ruin
Can we act human
Or perhaps just humane
