According to Joe
Joe Gedan

So what if it works on the mainland?
Rail transit is the current buzz
Spawning, monkey sees, monkey does.
"Others have it, Hey, me too."
A ritual demand not thought through.
There's no clue on its affect on traffic
Without a study demographic.
No one knows what it will net.
It's millions waged on a politicians bet.
Study and analysis might prevent
Acquiring a huge white elephant
We're heading on a fool hearty course
By putting the cart before the horse.
Daily headlines inspire the poet in Joe Gedan, a retired U.S. magistrate judge who lives in Honolulu. His observations on the news appear on Sundays and Fridays.
