SOME POLITICIANS

Some politicians are like tarts,

No cash or cause refusable;

They'll fuck with anyone - hands on hearts,

No promise inexcusable.

 

Some politicians are like sluts,

Haggling near a station;

Hear them use those "ifs" and "buts"

To find accommodation.

 

Some politicians are like jades

Whose looks are going fast;

Making hay ere summer fades,

Its hoped-for harvest past.

Nick - as a conciliatory sort of guy I'm prepared to think I may have been a tad harshon the species as an entity and have modifiedmy verse accordingly. As for your comment - I've heard that used about our police force...perhaps more accurately as they are drawn from a far wider spectrum of society than those whoenter politics and are thus likely to be more representative of that society.Cheers.
