Q-anon? …. Please, come on!
These are domestic terrorists
Stop the madness …. get control
If not …. what will become of us?

These radicals are extreme
There’s Marjorie Taylor Greene
She calls herself a patriot 
But ….she is downright mean!

Calling for our speaker
To take a bullet to the head
If she could do away with us
We would all be dead.  

We’ve got to stop this rhetoric 
She needs to be expelled
She shouldn’t be in Congress 
Send her home and wish her well.

Jim Jordan …. Gates and Lindsey Graham 
McCarthy ….. Hawley , too
A clear and present danger 
Directed right at you. 

They’re aligned with Donald Trump
They’re spouting hate and vengeance 
They proudly state their beliefs
They’re menacing and mendacious.

At this point …. what we need
Is an ethic’s investigation 
Ethically and morally
They’re out to screw our nation.

Out in the cold
That’s how I felt
The night you said
There’s someone else.

Your words cut deep
I was in shock
Nothing I did
Could make it stop.

After you spoke
I couldn’t hear
Could not respond
Nothing was clear.

My face was numb
Started to shake
I couldn’t breathe
Too much to take.

So many clues
You left a trail
I turned away
Lost out …. I failed.

You left me here
Now I’m alone
We both know you’re

Not coming home.

Please come to your senses
This can’t happen again
Trump’s reign of terror
Must be stopped …. it must end.

Police officers beaten
Our government defamed
Our officers out numbered
And Donald’s to blame.

The Capitol ….. attacked
By bullies and thugs. 
Please stop this madness
Enough is  enough!

Now the Senate won’t convict
And wants us to forget
Everything that Trump told us
Everything that he  had said.

Trump was filmed on video
Firing up the group
He had them charge the Capitol
He led the violent coup.

They stormed the building
Broke down the doors 
Emboldened …. they walked
The Senate floors.

They threatened to hang
Vice President Pence
Kill Speaker Pelosi 
With help from their friends.

They broke through the windows
They shattered the glass
Wearing war paint
Costumes and hats.

They screamed and they shouted
They just didn’t care
While  members of Congress
Were hiding and  scared.

What do we do
To get the Senate to act
To prosecute trump
Who began this attack?

Where are the laws
To make them comply?
Their behavior and lies
Make me want to cry.

They lack a conscience
They still want a fight
They don’t seem to know 
How to do …. what is right.

Hold me close …. don’t let go
I’ve fallen through the cracks
I’m trying, but I can’t break through
Can’t seem to make it back.

So out of touch …. so confused
Walking through this maze
Can’t see the truth …. in front of me
Can’t seem to find my way.

Can’t you walk beside me
Won’t you reach out for my hand?
Please don’t go …. not just yet
Please try to understand.

I’m feeling cold and desperate
About to lose my mind
Didn’t see the lights ahead of me
Those flashing, warning signs.

I’m looking for a lifeline
Please don’t let me go
I need a search and rescue 
From this avalanche of snow.

Grab your cup of coffee
You need to come outside
I promise I won’t twist your arm
I promise not to cry.

I just need to talk to you
One last time before you go
Just have a few more questions
Some things I need to know.

Nothing complicated
I won’t take much of your time
I won’t be such a bother
I won’t try and change your mind.

Just tell me….did you love me?
Was I just part of your plan?
Were you so damn unhappy
As unhappy as I am?

Were you really working late at night
The nights I sat at home?
I waited for you ….lying there
So many nights alone.

How long have you been seeing her?
Will I ever know the truth?
Guess it doesn’t matter now
Cause I’m finally over you.

I wish I never knew you
Wish I could forget
Wish I never kissed you
Wish we never met.

Hurts so much remembering
The way things used to be 
So much time I wasted
Wanting you to be with me.

Up all night …. I can’t sleep
What am I to do?
What a waste of time
Spent thinking about you.

You took what you wanted 
No farewell and no goodbyes
Left without a warning
Left me here to mourn …. to cry.

I wish I never loved you
I hope I can forget
Everything about you 
A mistake that I regret.

You were always so clever
Guess you’ve done this before
You played me, yes …used me
Then walked out the door.

Like an old pair of shoes
You tossed me aside
I couldn’t believe it
I grieved and I cried.

Another sweet face
Had just caught your eye
So easily led
I’ll never know why.

“She’s just a friend”
That’s what you said
“Someone from work
Someone I just met, “

There in a moment
Before my eyes
I’d been replaced
You had cheated, you lied.

You gotta know
When we first kissed
I never dreamed
It would be like this.

The moon and the stars
The planets aligned
Never thought it would end 
That we’d run out of time.

The depth of emotion
The passion within
Overwhelmed with elation
Felt time and again.

When our paths divided
It shattered my heart
I couldn’t imagine
Ever living  apart.

Thinking of you 
With someone else
No thought of me
Or how I felt.

Did what I could
Read a good book 
Watched some TV
Went for therapy.

But thoughts of you linger
They malign and obscure
They make me feel sick
And alas….there’s no cure.

Proud of our nation
We gather in peace
The hate and aggression
Must stop …. it must cease.

Unity foremost 
We must come together
The hatred toward others
Must be stopped… must be severed.

Belief in a cause
Righteous and true
Will bring us together
It’s what we must do.

Cast aside blame 
Denounce the abuse
There’s honor and glory
In telling the truth.

What do you want?
Why are you here?
You could have gone out
Almost anywhere.

Here with your friends
Having a  drink
A little too much
What do you think?

Don’t want to see you
Or watch you dance
Don’t want to get close
Don’t want to …. I can’t.

Flashy ….  unstable
Gasoline and a match
Way too much friction
Been there… done that. 

Sipping the suds
Laughing too hard
You took my pride
Then shattered my heart.

I need you to go
Finish your beer
Pick up your purse
Then get out of  here.

Don’t make a scene
You’re not into me
We both know it’s over
Just leave …. quietly.
