Political Ruffians

Without making reference to what this prose is about, I simply couldn't help myself from saying something about it. Amusing... Amazing... Appalling..

Ruffians, you have been groped by your own rope
Trading blows in court to make your point
You're punching the air while you get knocked down
One...
Two...
Three...
The count began
Eight...
Nine...
Ten...
You're grasping for air and support from the ground
Your time has come to face the end of the rope you've been trying to grope
Political Ruffians, you have been groped by your own rope
