Demon Democracy

[Lightning Rod]

Satan must be crazy
but he's entitled to his views
in a truly democratic world
bin laden would be a senator

Democracy is a circus
a two ringed carnival of clowns and acrobats
thrill rides and hydrocarbon cotton candy
the world deserves it

Satan loves democracy
if you take a vote
Sex and the City will win every time
over The Greatest Story Ever Told

Is Satan capable of love?
sure he is
that's the reason he was cast down.
He loved himself too much.

Satan had an election in Hell
It was him against the devil
the turnout was 100%
guess who won?

if only we could get a turnout like that above ground...of course it wouldn't matter much which party of "representatives" had the reins...
but at least we would know that voter turnout is the least of our problems....I hear Beelzebub is demanding a recount......

Like it. So much in so few words.
Poetic conservation.

Lightn Rod I love the permutations of your poetry. It sings to my soul the deception of democracy.
