TULA (POETRY)

 
The President's Sona
 
BY AK ABELLA
Posted by Bulatlat
 
Is it believable?
Why should we even listen to her babble?
It's just a break from all their political squabble
While our country's economy crumbles.
 
She keeps on promising programs galore
It's becoming such a bore
She acts as if she made a winning score
While we all wait for anything to be done and suffer
some more.
 
It's just promises, isn't that the truth?
We should just give her the boot
To stop her from hoarding more loot
'Cause while we're suffering, she doesn't even give
a hoot.
 

The author is a 12-year-old high school freshman.
