A man who would say anything

An empty suit, a specter,
Nothing like a leader
A man who would say anything
For a glimpse, a whiff,
A taste of real power.
 
Humiliation, rancor,
Division at the outset,
Nothing like a leader
Rallying the troops,
Wielding her gavel.

A new year dawns in fog - v3

A new year dawns in fog
Creating a question for us
Like the riddle of the glass
Whether half full or half empty
A challenge for our senses
What do we truly see.
 
Possibilities open before us
Requiring trust, faith,
Belief in the unseen providence,
The faithfulness of God
Before the days open
A mystery foretold.
