Vote Early, Vote Often

We here in America are experiencing one of the scariest election seasons known to our young country. It seems most citizens are resigned to vote for the lesser of two evils and for each citizen, “evil” has a very different meaning. Do we vote to “Make America Great Again?” After all slavery, a lack of rights for women, and male bigotry are the key components that created the land we love. Or, do we vote for a woman who would seem a little less than trustworthy, but hey, we all know she’s already been president.

Well, friends, I have the solution to this terrible dilemma. Come this Tuesday, I will be writing in the only candidates fit to run our country. Wanda Sykes and Ellen DeGeneres.

Here are some reasons why Sykes/DeGeneres is the only way to vote:

  • Wanda Sykes started out working for the NSA. She knows how important this country’s safety is and also how to send emails properly.
  • After leaving college, Ellen DeGeneres clerked at a law firm, meaning she knows just as much if not more that Donald Trump about the ins and outs of political policy.
  • Sykes is not afraid to talk about and deal with the hard issues “I’m a black, gay woman. I think the only way to make the GOP hate me more is if I sent them a video of me rolling around on a pile of welfare checks.”
  • DeGeneres has wonderful family values, her mother, Betty, is present in the audience during many of her shows. She has supported her daughter through thick and thin, even during those mullet days in the 80’s.
  • Both represent the kind of love and family that this country needs. Each has been married since 2008, and they even still love their wives. Respectively, of course.

How do they stack up in comparison to our other candidates?

Trump

Presumably both would know how to grab pussy just as well, if not better. Also know how to do so respectively.

Clinton

Both are women, just like Hillary.

Still have your doubts??

The most important thing to note is that they both support the gay agenda. Maybe they can finally make clear exactly what that is.

The Other Woman

I thought I left behind

all these feelings that betrayed

my heart and my soul

and left my nerves frayed.

Then I saw your face

and I knew without a doubt

that I would fall again

all these feelings pouring out.

I’d hoped that I could change

but deep down I know I can’t

and loving only you

is a privilege I just can’t grant.

Horror Story

I am haunted by

the ghost of my past

who thought this was real

who thought this would last

but like so much in the world,

the illusion was strong

and the feelings were fake

and the moment was wrong

and now I must live with

the demons I’ve spawned

pretending that I’ll make it

after the morning has dawned.

Midnight Stroll

I have been lost in those eyes

since the moment they laid claim

to this battered heart of mine

that had gotten used to pain.

I’d stay forever if you’ll let me

wander the far reaches of your soul

since getting lost with you

is my favorite midnight stroll.
