On Voting


      On Voting

If you are going to have
Early Voting, then
It should only happen
For as long before it takes
For purple dye to wear off
That the Early Voter has had
                     their finger
                    dipped into.
          And the same for
Same-day voting;
                        and thus
           cutting out
           some traveling
                    between
    voting precincts
       to enhance
      one’s single
            vote.

    And mandatory
         photo ID.
             And
           the lot.
      To be caught
              at
      your childish
          games.

          Oh yes.
           If you
       are going to
   act like children
            then
     you should be 
          treated
      like children
          playing
             at 
        maturity.

       Or worse:
         a curse
            on 

         society.


May these Midterms 
             be
        honorable.
