It’s not the budget June 8th, 2012
BY
Our elected officials went to Ottawa and disappeared,
Into subcommittee rooms, behind closed doors, it is feared,
While unelected appointees made decisions that count,
Death with dignity was forbidden like a sermon on the mount.
That’s what they said to Sue Rodriguez when she wanted to die,
With painful Lou Gehrig’s disease; she just wanted to say, “Bye!”
Life and death issues are whispered about somewhere over there,
Binding referendums banned by appointees almost everywhere.
We need Constitutional changes, that are banned and not allowed,
And we behave like a very disciplined obedient crowd,
Without binding referendums or death with dignity,
While high appointees up there, think they behave brilliantly.
