Politics USA: Same Old Story

Comment from Rosemary Everson1
To compromise is the best way to get through some of these problems. The parties who put on the boxing gloves, need to sit down and talk instead of getting into a match.

Hello,
Interesting senryu entry for the Political Senryu writing prompt contest. Good syllables count. The connection between lines can be improved. The ending (satori) is supposed to be an aha! moment.
Good luck

Thank you very much, Gypsy, for reviewing my Senryu and clarifying its structure.
Comment from Patty Palmer
Very true. Because of hate that's getting done is fighting. It's taken eight months for Biden to totally wreck America. All he is doing is everything he can to take every good thing that Trump did away and replace it with empty air. I hope those Trump haters are seeing what they've done. But then, it isn't their fault since no one will ever convince me that Biden won fair and square.

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
This is what I hate most about politics, the back stabbing! Here in Britain whenever the Conservative party (Republican) do something to help the people, the labour party (democrat) complain, mainly because they did not think of it first! The squabbling does not help the Nation to get on its feet! Much enjoyed, poignant words, love Dolly x

Thank you, Dolly. This political squabbling is universal. My sister complains about it in Canada.

You've captured the sad state of politics . Perhaps moving to a boxing ring would be more civilized. Nicely written, succinct political commentary.

Too many egos and self-serving interests. You've created a great Political Senryu 5-7-5 for the contest. Loved the presentation and your thoughts. Great job!

I agree--each has their own agenda once elected. Good job on your contest entry, Mystery Author. Your syllables are correct per line, the image is perfect, and your message is clear.
Best wishes in the contest.
Respectfully, Jan

It's a real problem when our country's leaders can't even set an example, but not only that, but by their behaviour actually seem to endorse it, beautifully written my friend, good luck, blessings Roy
