Politicking, posturing - they pander to the press.
Every day the two sides drifting further from success.
Racing towards the fiscal cliff like lemmings to the sea,
Leaving me concerned we've got a broken polity.
Maybe this is sausage making and I shouldn't look;
Simply close my eyes and hope that I can trust the cook.
Even should I choose that course, I fear the markets won't.
They don't think that, privately, there's progress being made
As their hopes that we'll avoid the cliff begin to fade.
Congress may produce a tasty sausage we can try,
But it looks like not before we see pigs learn to fly.
