Romney & Ryan: an R & R Rant



Romney and Ryan
an R&R campaign:

Rich and Repellant
Religious and Righteous
Right-wing and Randian
Republican and Repugnant

Running for their lifestyles
of Rest and Relaxation

Running on a lifetime
of Rest and Relaxation

Running for their lives
of Rest and Relaxation

Running on their Rich Roots
of deep pockets

Afforded them by their Rich Roots
of deep privilege

Born into entitlement, raised on access
Romney and Ryan 
Representing those who are Really Rich
Accountable only to the Really Rich
An R&R campaign symbolizing all
That is Really wRong Right Now
in Corporate Capitalist Country
beholden to the Red States
Running everyone into the Red

Born into entitlement, raised on access
Romney and Ryan 
Running to RailRoad and RamRod
the Rest of us, the un-Rich of the un-Rest-ed,
the underpaid, underemployed, unemployed, and overworked.

The Rest of Us
must collect, catalyze our unRest,
protest the R & R of our distress, 
of our distrust,
we must disrupt
their R & R

Wake Up! Romney and Ryan
From your Rich Rest and Relaxation
From your Repugnant and Randian fantasy nation
From your slumbering ignorance and toxic convictions
Before you Ruin us and Rust us all

Don’t Vote R & R
They are the wRonger and wRonger choice
