President Barak Obama is calling for agreement in talks aimed at averting default. As the Aug. 3 deadline approaches, the president is urging both sides to make concessions.
Paying The Bills
The president’s urging
Discussions not halt
Until we’re all certain
Uncle Sam won’t default.
He’s urging both sides
To somehow devise
A way to find balance
With some compromise.
To spare all the people
Another recession,
There’s call for agreement
By way of concession.
Some Democrats, though,
With a bit of alarm,
Are hoping Obama
Won’t trade off the farm.
There are those who feel, too,
That enough is enough
And urge each lawmaker
To get off of his duff.
