On the Back of a Spirit

On the back of a spirit We'll rise or fall Or say damn man The hell with it all. I get the gist And twirl and twist To soak in the stupid: A flick of the wrist. Gov'nor blankets pomp and photo-op Or immeasurable vapidity like defunding cops. I plaster my fat face In front of y'all, and say Hey man welcome To the start of the Fall.

Nice rhyme and interesting images, John. Sometimes I am very tempted to say "The hell with it all," particularly after watching a "news"cast.
