Analysis of And...The Winner Is...



Where.
And who is the winner.
In losing situation.
From the start to have begun,
As an inside battle.
Observing the participants,
Fighting each over has won.
With no one being realistically qualified,
To enter a race,
Without it to benefit...
Neither side of the people,
Expecting their interests invested...
Returns a priority that puts them in first place.

And...
The winner...is?
To be determined at another time.
Gone already to find wasted.
Every hour chasing power.
Eliminating common sense.
Witnessed abused to prefer,
An activate escalating of ignorance.
Swelling around seen flushing down a toilet.
With no one caring enough to stop.
Children playing with a clock stopped.
Ignoring to disbelieve.
That which swirls around in a cesspool,
Goes down.
Not up.
Or ever again see.
From a gutter considered a home for rats.
Leaving not one at bat to hit a home run.
This game to play it,
Has long been over for everyone.

And...the winner...is?
Possibly the people,
Independently choosing...
Not to play grown up,
With children at all.
Dressed to impress to be adults.
Aduts focusing their interests,
On winning for the people.
And not themselves to lose!

Leaving the winner,
Eventually to be...
Determined.
For the people by the people patient.
For the people by the people tolerant.
To stop an ignorance to reward.

To stop an ignorance only to explore more,
Stupidity.
Nobody needs more,
Stupidity.
To welcome at their doors more,
Stupidity.
To open up their doors,
For...
Stupidity.  

We,
The people...
Agree,
Faithfully.
We,
Are no longer in need...
For more,
Stupidity.

Nobody needs more,
Stupidity.
To open up their doors for more,
Stupidity.
Nobody needs to explore,
Stupidity.

We,
The people...
Faithfully do believe,
We,
Are no longer in need,
For more...
Stupidity.

And...the winner...is,
No more stupidity!
The winner is no more stupidity.
Gone and forever no more,
Is stupidity.
Gone from the people is...
STUPIDITY!
Booted to the curb is...
STUPIDITY.
A truly booting to the curb is...
STUPIDITY!

We,
The people.
Believe and faithfully,
We,
Are no longer in need...
For more
To explore away from our doors,
STUPIDITY!
Gone.
STUPIDITY kicked to the curb,
Gone.
STUPIDITY!
Gone.
STUPIDITY booted to the curb,
Gone for good.
