Title change: Former The Plight of Politics now Unsavory Politicians.
Edit: Politicians, profits, power
Promoting poisonous pronouncements
Pursing perverted payment ploys
Plying plaguing, plotted plans
Political pandering parasites
Puffed-up, pompous prattling
Pimps pushing pet projects
Pursuing peoples' pockets

Ciao mystery poet,
I totally agree , America needs a leader that puts the welfare of its people first.
The 2024 elections is a great opportunity for a significant change .
America's economy has nosedived and that is affecting the global economy also. And people's daily lives.
Food mortgages, electricity, gas bills have gone up , people are struggling to make ends meet.
The war in Ukraine needs to end. I read a week ago that Biden is asking for still more money, $13 billion dollars this time, for Ukraine.
This is madness , Ukraine soldiers are dying like flies , American arsenals are empty.
American has never been as vulnerable.
Ps. You need to check out the other entries.. EACH WORD needs to start with the same letter not just each line.. that s where the challenge stands.
Best of luck!

Thank you for the read, however, I found I misread the rules. Every work had to start with the same letter. Edit title to: Unsavory Politicians. Change to meet the rules: Politicians, profits, power
Promoting poisonous pronouncements
Pursing perverted payment ploys
Plying plaguing, plotted plans
Political pandering parasites
Puffed-up, pompous prattling
Pimps pushing pet projects
Pursuing peoples' pockets

Ciao!
I actually went and re-read your poem this morning before the blackout on fanstory..
I was going to give some feedback but I couldn't.
I found it even better after the edit.. your points are more impactful.
You did an awesome job!

Thank you so much for taking the time to re-read. Deeply appreciated.

Ciao! I just woke up and saw the contest hit the booth.
You now have 3️⃣ votes!
Best of luck ! 🍀
and hopefully the 2024 election?s brings to power a politician that puts the needs of the nation first.

Thank you

Good effort. In your poem, every line starts with the same letter, but the contest rules say every word should start with the same letter. If you wanted to include politics, every word would have to start with P.

That works well with the changes.
Comment from Mary Vigasin
I have to agree with you in this well-written and very truthful poem.
The well (the House has a Well) has been fatally poisoned by liars, hypocrites, and those who look after their self-interest.
The ones who ran on the economy etc. are now spending time with baseless investigations rather than legislature.
Best wishes,
Mary
