THIRTY-FOUR

More reasons to reach 

for the alarm clock.

Defendant is in the dock.

Blaring guilt says the jury.

Still, reason to worry.

The only reason is written

on the forms, not by the fox

who has destroyed all norms.

No reason spoken

by the House Speaker,

who seeks to make law weaker.

The alarm keeps ringing

to wake us up,

beyond the nightmare

of so many corrupt.

Shut off the alarm.

Time to get up.

Time to reason and face the day

and stop the bullies 

who dream of getting their way.

Thirty-four reasons

will not go away.

Thirty-four reasons

to wake up smiling today.
