WHY ARE WE SO INCLINED

Why are we so inclined to put our
leaders on a pedestal?
And when their luster doesn’t shine
our Facebook posts besmear them.

Why are we so inclined to think
they can predict the future?
And when economy declines
we are surprised and snarky.

Why are we so inclined to forget
their faults and failings?
How an egotistical mind can
lead to much corruption

Why are we so inclined to assume
politians are no good?
Some are smart as well as kind
we need to vote them in.
