Moving On


Got an urgent, Next Day Priority Express request for follow-on financial support for his run for Congress from Dr. Charles 'Trey' Thomas, in Louisiana.  His covering letter, in part, reads:

"Above everything else, today's Democrat Party is dedicated to one thing -- growing the entitlement culture.  They want to trap large segments of the population into thinking they're dependent on the government for their very survival…

"…and as a black conservative Republican running for office, I'm finding out that they aren't shy about attacking anyone who dares stand up to them…"


Go for it, Dr. Thomas.  I've got your back.

     Moving On

You are not 'entitled'
As a matter of right
To the earnings
Of any other person.
      And just as soon
      as you 'get' that
And are off and running
On a different track
From the one
You are on
At the moment
In graduated Time,
I'll be moving on.
I've got other
Fish to fry
   anyway,
So to speak
From the ones
That they have
Down in Louisiana way.

       from your
Elder Brother
