Ranting in Rhyme: Let's call a spade a spade

[larryjhanson]

Let’s call a spade a spade

Politics is a masquerade

Tenets of Democracy mislaid

Like a fake wedding promenade

Laws for them they will evade

Laws for us will be obeyed

We have all just been betrayed

Corporatized government charade

Like a bizarre carnival arcade

They make us feel afraid

Most voters are duly swayed

It’s how this game is played

So let’s just call a spade a spade

"It's alright ma - I'm only rhyming"

Regarding my verses titled, "let's Call a Spade a Spade", you asked whether I am a Dylan fan, too. I am. However, Dylan had a time span in which he wrote and played songs. He has since veered from these kind of messages. David Rovics still is one of the current troubadousr for social justice.
