did you vote today

she loves
politics, could talk
all day
about the deficit
and immigration.
she knows
her swing states,
her blue
and red ones
too. there is
no topic left
unturned that she
can't offer an
opinion on.
she's tuned in
to who leans left
who leans
right. she's
in the choir
listening to the
preacher on
talk radio.
collecting information
to rattle off
later, to prove her
points, pointing
her finger at
you for being
on the fence
with so many issues.
did you vote, she
says to you
and everyone
she meets, here's
a button. go
vote. go vote.
go vote. sigh, how
you miss her, or
who she used to be.
