Political folks just repeat
…and repeat,
Keep saying it over
…to win that great seat,
But I have a limit,
My ears just can’t hear it,
When words from that goat’s
mouth become one more BLEAT!

BTW, Don’t forget to vote next Tuesday! May the best goat win.

About Gordon C. Stewart
I've always liked quiet. And, like most people, I've experienced the world's madness. "Be Still! Departure from Collective Madness" (Wipf and Stock Publishers, Jan. 2017) distills 47 years of experiencing stillness and madness as a campus minister and Presbyterian pastor (IL, WI, NY, OH, and MN), poverty criminal law firm executive director, and social commentator. Our cat Lady Barclay reminds me to calm down and be much more still than I would be without her.
You’re giving goats a bad name. 🙂

I know. I love the section where the goat spits in the guy’s face. Kind of how I’m feeling about the campaign right about now.

Love the short poem, and then the real goats making so many varied bleats… LOL
