Gone Fishin

Ott

Power of the pen
Dwarfs the sword;
Might not feel the paw,
But we heed the roar.
Like "Nommo,"
It's the power of the word.
Politicos spin it
To calm the herd.
Who's listening now?
We just nod and grin;
Stumble to the polls
And elect them again.
Power of the people-
We've given it back.
But the bait-it's gone;
Let's reel in the slack.
Anchors aweigh!!
Discover new schools,
Cause if you keep casting,
We can fish out the fools.
