I wrote this to explain. [bodytext] =>
Left nor right, neither, am I,
Both wings, serve the same bird,
So the bird can fly high.

As the wing do both grow,
And both, stronger they become.
Both the same strength, both work as one.

The bird will fly high,
Be the majesty of the sky,
And soar to the heavens above.

But if nature goes wrong,
If she makes one wing strong.
The bird, flies in circle/'/s, can/'/t wander.

If the strong wing try/'/s,
And defeats the other side,
The bird cannot fly, upon yonder.

It will fall out of the sky,
And nature will not deny,
The bird will crash….and die, Now Ponder.

What it is, I Say.
These wings are important, must stay.
Attacking each other, It is not the right way.

It defeats all Purpose,
And this must be avoided,
Avoided, to save the day.

Both wings Must work,
Together we must fly.
The left and right wings,
of our government, please try......

Left nor right, neither, am I,
Both wings, serve the same bird,
So the bird can fly high.

As the wing do both grow,
And both, stronger they become.
Both the same strength, both work as one.

The bird will fly high,
Be the majesty of the sky,
And soar to the heavens above.

But if nature goes wrong,
If she makes one wing strong.
The bird, flies in circle/'/s, can/'/t wander.

If the strong wing try/'/s,
And defeats the other side,
The bird cannot fly, upon yonder.

It will fall out of the sky,
And nature will not deny,
The bird will crash….and die, Now Ponder.

What it is, I Say.
These wings are important, must stay.
Attacking each other, It is not the right way.

It defeats all Purpose,
And this must be avoided,
Avoided, to save the day.

Both wings Must work,
Together we must fly.
The left and right wings,
of our government, please try......
