Sense Sonnet - Steamer

Bargain Basement

Corporate campaign spending tiz
Accused of buying politics.
Corrupting power is big biz
From all sides in the govvie mix.
The media should love the deal,
Getting paid for their press and air.
Take it away and hear the squeal
Of meddling by gov - just taint fair.
To speak the bare truth just gets lost
In all the lies of fanciness.
To not know truth - what is that cost
To We the People - take a guess.

Shrink the govvie powers away -
Who will live to see that day?
