Downpour

Written by C Hues

August 11, 2022

We’re headed downhill like the owners from Ulster
Mulattoes were the creation—Brits and Irish were the authors
They fancied the fancies, opportunity, and greed
As the wants trickled down to overcome the needs
It’s a stretch like Reed if you think things are fantastic
Pathetic push for power, policies so plastic

Politicians lie about lowering the crime rate
Yet hardly a single one tries to rehabilitate 
They put the poor down when the downpour came
The middle class is mentioned, but below that is inane
You must be insane—cause if you don’t wanna drown
Reaganomics must reign, and watch the lie trickle down
