This political 5-7-5, Our Bullets...Votes, has the proper seventeen-syllable format and brings us to the reasonable solution to our political problems: Vote them out of office. If you still believe that we aren't just fooling ourselves believing this is still a democratic society.

This is a compelling call to action, attractively presented, and complemented by an appropriate illustration. However, the author's own political preference is held close to his vest.

I am not sure of the main message in this poem. There is a seeming contradiction between the 2-nd and 3-rd line. Maybe it is because I don't understand the political background.

I like the urgency of the Speaker's words. Ican see him leading a protest march. But what exactly is he shouting against? That pronoun THIS is too vague in its reference and too all-encompsssing.

A very well-written political 5-7-5 poem. The majority of voters are not always well-educated and fall very quickly for the false promises of free education, housing, etc.

Totally agree. Good political post with an urgent prompting to vote...to take responsibility. Well presented. I think your punctuation and spacing choices serve the poem to great effect. Fine presentation too. Bravo and good luck.

Oh, and great metaphor in the title!

Warmly, rd
