Amazon Reviews


Reviewer 1 enjoyed it.
Reviewer 2 did not.
They argue – tempers flare, and words
Increasingly profane
Fill the little squares.
Then two months after that
Reviewer 3 jumps in with knives
And kills whoever says a word.
Alas by then book is out of print.



 
The Tea Party


Why the hell is something
As ridiculous as this
In the news?
Or talked about at all?
It's a joke.
Just Yankee silliness.
Thank god these idiots aren't Democrats.
I would be embarrassed.
To give these people power is like
Letting children play
With loaded guns.
And I've been called a fool.

The Prisoner Exchange


The GOP that doesn't give a damn,
Did not and never will for people's lives
Or feelings – how much is a feeling worth
In bucks or pounds? - is at it once again.
It seems to me – just casually glancing
At the news – that what the GOP
Hates is anything Obama does.
It doesn't matter what.
A reasonable unbigoted approach.
Intelligent. They care about the country.
They're angry at the prisoner exchange.
I don't know why. I didn't read the story.
I didn't want to bother. These too human
Congressmen at last are just a bore.
The country will continue – not because
But regardless of the loyal GOP.
