Project Washington

Democrats and Republicans
Are fighting a war within Washington buildings
A microcosm of the war in the Middle East
Words instead of tanks
Cash instead of beans
This is the height of democracy
The republic’s final hour
Oh Washington:
Lincoln and Jefferson are turning over in their graves
An annihilated family in Fallujah has none

Super Bowl XLII

David slew Goliath
The Patriots fell
The Giants were David
The Pats went to hell

The brusque, haughty coach
His comeuppance was due
Manning the slingshot
Of Super Bowl 42

Perfection subjective
In this corporate game
A perfect commercial
For the one of meek name
