THE FARMER IN THE SELL
The farmer feels dumb, he was played
he was duped by a conman's charade
he ignored the alarm
now he's losing his farm
what a charm for a corporate raid!

Yep! And they voted against…
Yep! And they voted against the very people who work their farms, too. Difficult to find empathy here.

Your ditty explains it…
Your ditty explains it plainly. Shame you weren't made president then all that sh!t going down wouldn't hurt people. I like your poem, good flow, almost a limerick worth reading. Ruby xx
