This is what the alliteration masterpiece of yesterday meant, in almost plain English.
Good old boys with their good old ways,
influence minds newer of thought,
who know what voters want and sought.
Life long hand shakers give crass gaze,
causing new hopes dashed in a haze.
The old guard’s ways stay close and true.
Their weak platform made young minds spew.
Leaders are out of touch with time,
while hard-fought wins are in their prime.
Toady Congress brought want for new.

Those two hearts are like here in the South when the ladies say ‘Bless Your Heart’ when they really mean. “You poor thing, you’re dumb as a brick.” 🙂 It’s making the punch with a downy filled velvet boxing glove.

Mhmm, sure you did. I think my fingers get ahead of my words sometimes. I type rather fast when I can type. Sometimes I have to use voice to text. That’s when I blame on technology. 🙂
