Darke County Senior Scribe
The Elephant in
the Room
By Lois Wilson
Once again Senior Scribe Poet Laureate Lois Wilson is on top of the
issues with her insightful look at the important events of the day.
This time it’s politics. Or more importantly, Republican politics.
Remember when everyone insisted one candidate take the pledge to
support the nominee of the party? Well… the voters have spoken and the
elephant in the room has emerged…
Wilson's completed set - five volumes - of published poetry is now
available and is offered as a fundraiser for the Senior Scribes
Scholarship Fund. Enjoy great poetry and help a local youngster attend
college. For additional information, contact
editor@countynewsonline.org.
THE TRUMP CARD
They thought he didn’t have the edge,
That he would never sign the pledge.
So they all signed, then he did too.
He beat them out to earn his due.
His politics, a bit unique—
Some pledgers threw a fit of pique.
They do not endorse, too much pride,
Hope for an old horse for the ride.
Turning back their pledge shows the sign—
A party hack still toes the line.
