Mark
Antony proclaimed “I come to bury Caesar” not to him praise
Obama
ignored advice and used Lewis’ celebration to vicious attacks raise
Never
listened to his wife who proclaimed “when they go low we go high”
Someone
with decency which Obama must lack would not on a celebration of life rely
To
make it a platform to politicize Lewis’ life
To
unleash the partisan dogs and add to the election year strife
What
goes around Obama comes around as in the case of Flynn you may find
Your
politicizing the FBI on him and Trump the American people will no longer be
blind
Rather
than inserting yourself in Biden’s basement bunker campaign
Why
not ape other ex-Presidents and from partisan rhetoric refrain
Go
to your Presidential Library drawings and add to the height and thickness of
the surrounding walls
As
gunfire from black on black shootings continues unabated and the rising black
death rate appalls
Become
a spokesperson that all black lives matter not just those shot by cops
Become
a crusading force trying to get black on black shootings in Chicago to drop
That
is a legacy to be proud of and your positive role in history to be forever
enshrined
Not
a legacy of trying to drag a faded mental corpse across the election victory finishing
line!
