Election Day

By JP Massar

It starts in Georgia.

Polls close at 4 o’clock sharp.

The peachy state’s ripe.

North Carolina.

Later by half of an hour.

Third time be a charm?

So… Pennsylvania.

At 5:00 partial results start.

Breathe deep. Could take days.

Likewise Michigan.

Great lakes of confusion?

Or smooth Harris win?

At 6:00, nachos time.

Or a cheese steak. Or pizza.

Wisconsin churns out.

Dare say Iowa?

Improbable win here and…

Likely all over.

Arizona too.

Abortion on the ballot.

Trump death knell? Our hell?

And then Nevada.

At 7:00. Votes in Vegas…

Don’t stay in Vegas.

Hours of discontent.

Day of late ballot counting?

Weeks of legal crap?

Stay tuned for drama.

Brought on by the one, only…

Electoral school.
