Two clever words, although our two major political parties appeared to share bi-partisanship in the early days of the pandemic its now back to the "slap and crap" of the old days, beautifully written observation of "if only", blessings Roy

Very clever portmanteau you created. But, moderates or those who compromise are not very popular in the political scene right now, and that's probably why we can't seem to get out of this mess. Well done. I hope you do well in the contest,

    Thanks, Linda. Politicking used to mean compromises; now it means all or nothing.

I love the imagination that you used for this poem. You said a lot in a few words. I had to look up portmanteau, it's a word I've never come across before. I'm glad that I had the opportunity to learn something new though. If only centrist politicians still existed. Something to hope for. Well done.
