Unsteady State
It’s clear she’s morphing into something new,
The savvy pol got there on pluck, but now
Allied with power has required she hew
To all new lines and quickly figure how
To navigate the halls as if in school:
In House with voter clout her way holds sway
No matter, soapbox, shoulder, step or stool
Beside him all the way, is where she’ll stay.
By hook or crook, or more, by claw or maw,
Forget that Q-anon bit, ‘twas the mere
Deft means of bait and switch, and bloody raw,
How politics became her new career.
The pupa stage will latch it’s fate and wait
To reappear as what? We wait our fate.
