Watching

Two years ago today we watched

The Capitol attacked,

In disbelief at all the sense

Our leader surely lacked.


In shock and horror we were glued

To any screen in sight,

As protests turned to violence

From those just thrilled to fight.


Today we watch the circus 

As the House attempts to vote,

Our government still stymied

By some mulishness of note.


A strong conviction’s often worth 

A fight, to some extent,

But once we knew lines not to cross,

Which now some circumvent.
