Our once district leader
Has changed her tune
Becoming the paid mouthpiece
For state capitol buffoons
Before, a fierce advocate
For public school funding
She is now complicit
In a terrible plundering
Schools need resources
For strong education
Without such dollars
We fail generations
Read, write and math
Critical thinking
Our kids need such skills
Lest we keep sinking
Into a chaos
Manipulated by power-grabbing ghouls
Who use talk radio
As a substitute for schools
Her stance? Confusing
Her bank account? Quite lit
It has become apparent
Dr. Bishop is a hypocrite
— David Zumbro
