Campaign

This is a story that's going to end with me
because I am the finest period of irony.
I believe in myself,
and you believe in me, or you, or someone else.
Don't tell the seventy-five thousand people who believe I told them the truth
'I lied',
don't tell the thirty-five million people who believe I lied
'I told the truth'.
While you cast your votes,
to catch your next leader for the nation,
I'll cast my line into the water,
to catch my next rainbow trout,
because everyone knows
when God is not around to rule his universe,
he's gone fishing.
