I remember when I voted
in San Francisco, California, the city by the bay.
It was the first time I had ever voted
for any elected official... HOORAY!
I did it!
I voted after I heard Dick say...
"A pig in lipstick is still a pig,
no matter how much lipstick it wears today."
I remember that very day
when Dick spoke about the pig cliche.
The current pig with lipstick
just rolled in mud amid other pigs
and hid the truth
so daddy could use it in time
to help him look like a bigger bigwig pig!
The smaller pigs had been so impressed
with the current pig
that they offered this pig with lipstick
the same address so his family wouldn’t be homesick...
it all happened again...
in a flick of a tick
and once again along with DICK!
The other pigs even dressed them up...
to help impress
those without lipstick nonetheless...
for no one second guessed this process
until the current pig with lipstick became obsessed
with taking over the barn... the barn no less!
All that mattered now
was full blown success...
success at all costs as the pig with lipstick
can now impress and stress
to the other pigs as he says...
"We need this barn to help protect this sloppy mess!"
This would also impress Daddy Pig's success.
The pig with lipstick
didn't really say that last part out-loud...
he was too proud.
He then bowed to the crowd...
as the other pigs were wowed...
for they never saw a pig with lipstick
speak out-loud and even speaking holier...
holier than thou,
WOW!
This current pig with lipstick
is the son of a high brow sow
who will not allow the smaller pig with lipstick
to disavow Daddy Pig, what, when or how!
There wasn’t anything else to say
when Dick spoke of a pig with lipstick on that day.
And you might ask me who I voted for on that election day.
I voted for the pig who wore lipgloss and pret-a-porter
and I thank Dick for the pig story
and attempting to be upfront
reflecting to me... "THAT dog don't HUNT!"
but that's another story for another day
as alot of pigs in lipstick voted on that day...
for this loss
now lies with the double-crossed albatross.
A pig with lipstick,
a dog that will not hunt,
a double-crossed albatross...
tell me now...
who’s your daddy...
who's once again your BOSS???
The pig with lipstick
or the other pig I voted for who wears lipgloss.
and that was my choice?
