F-Off

That fudged fiasco Florida unfolded
Of fakery and farce four years ago
Is far outfalsified by this new false
And two-faced face-off full of forgery,
Foregone conclusions, fabricated tallies,
Failing machines, and far-flung registrations,
Observers frozen out, fired supervisors,
Flawed voter purges, disenfranchisment,
Officials fronting for for-profit firms
Disfiguring democracy, enforcing
A phoney, manufactured affirmation,
A fantasy to fox the fuddled masses,
Fiction to fuel a fascist feeding frenzy
Feasting on firefights in forlorn Fallujah
By 'Phantom Fury' [1] unforgiveable
With fatal fallout for our fearful fate.
'Tis faith-based fiddle of unfettered fraud
Inflames our future and foretells our downfall,
Unfree, unfair, and founded on a fix.
