once upon a time, far far away
as those stories all like to start
there were very heated debates
as all sides sought resolutions
these days that seems to be past
collective bargaining an expense
no real value in solving conflict
bargain like Washington instead
no compromising on principles
no matter how self serving
claim stubbornness the cause
and blame the other side for it
small separations don't exist
everything becomes a major issue
do not give in to pressures
remain firm no matter how silly
once upon a time, closer to home
common sense will return to us
and partisan obduracy vanish
true compromises to find again
If there is hope close to home, then let us make this country OUR HOME.
