There's still time! Please increase the size of the font. It's hardly readable against the dark background. You might lighten it. I don't fault your commentary. This election is going to be a circus, whether we like it or not. Best of luck!

Very true words. People need to get involved if they expect any change. I would recommend you enlarge your font. The small black is difficult to read against the dark blue.
Best of luck!

I get it it is good, Bullshit but good. Democracy does not work never did and is only getting worse. Benevolent meritocracy is what we all need. Good in the contest.

An excellent entry for the Political 5-7-5 writing prompt #3. This is very true, this year more than ever before, You can't sit on the sidelines and think your vote doesn't count because each and every vote could make the difference in how our country continues. If I were to make a suggestion i would say you should increase your font size because your poem is getting lost on the page and is very difficult to read. just something to consider. Nice work. Good luck in the contest.

    Thank you so much. Good suggestion--I was so focused on everything else, I forgot to check font size.

This is a great poem and a great response to "it's not my circus." You also got the syllable count right. Thank you for sharing this political 5-7-5, and best wishes to you.

As citizens of any country, I believe it is our duty to take an interest in Politics. We need to understand the different parties, what they stand for and then make an informed choice. Women in particular fought for the vote and I never waste mine, I watch the circus and we have to be part of it, love Dolly x

Haha, well said. Succinct and amusing. A great moving image to go with it too. It always amazes me how much can be said in so few words.
Well done, gansach.

This 5-7-5, Ringside Seat, has the proper formatting and reminds the readers that whoever is chosen to steer the clown car, may take us over the prat falls.
