Death Takes a Holiday in Cancun

 

In warm and sunny Cancun today

The senator’s children play on the beach

In frozen and powerless Texas

The children of the poor die in the cold

 

In frozen and powerless Texas today

The senator’s staff all coven together

To tack together excuses and visuals

The children of the poor die in the cold

 

Today the senator’s words are loud and bold

And still

The children of the poor die in the cold
