An American Limerick Wannabe

Pollsters and pundits are all so redundant,
Who will our president be?
Clinton’s a liar,
Trump’s in his tower,
And the only one losing is me.
Scandals and emails, pay to play hot deals,
Promises that are not true.
Her being pro-choice,
Gives the unborn no voice,
And the only one losing is you.
Trump may be clueless, but Hillary’s useless,
Is just being a woman enough?
It’s time for all Christians,
To make hard decisions,
‘cause the only ones losing are us.

@Mike197602 I just looked it up and I still don't see why it doesn't qualify.

I truly believe our whole nation will lose if Hillary Clinton is elected.

Great poem and I'm really impressed! Well done! However I agree with Janet that it's not a limerick. It doesn't matter It's still a great poem - great rhythm and rhyming. A limerick is five lines with lines 1,2 and 5 rhyming and 3,4 rhyming. And there is a certain rhythm to it with restrictions on the number of syllables.

@1creekgirl it's true, there isn't much of a choice. Nice job.

Thanks, Susan. Trump is the lesser of two evils, but I think Hillary is a much larger evil.
