Today's art piece is titled "They Waited, Waited, Waited......But Got No Answers".It is 12" long x 7" wide x 7" high. It is basically a statement about the political chaos we are facing in our country. Both sides of the aisle are toying with us, as a cat toys with an injured mouse. Everything goes on behind closed doors, benefits personal reelections or the financial contributors to their campaigns. Can't distinguish who is the "fat cat". Is the corporate CEO or the union leader? How were we, as a populace, so stupid to elect this group of egotistical idiots? Wonder if I was in a bad accident, which one, if any, would stop and offer assistance. Have gotten phone calls from both parties requesting contributions. Even when you tell them, you haven't worked in months, don't get unemployment and barely get by on social security, they still want, almost demand, you give something to their favorite "asshole". Yep, they are really concerned about us.
Originally wrote several more paragraphs concerning the above topic, but deleted them. It got too depressing. Instead am going to put on an old Bob Dylan album, sit in my rickety rocking chair and wait, wait and wait for sanity to hopefully return.
