A bit of doggerel for you on the occasion of the nomination for speaker
With apologies to Guy Fawkes, the bard, and all others who appreciate fine verse…
I’ll never get over
The twenty fourth of October
Sedition, treason and plot
I see no reason
Why maga bred treason
Should inordinately be forgot
McCarthy and jordan, emmer and johnson
Traitors to oath one and all
A house without guidance
Chaotic and strident
The constitution is backed to the wall
A powder keg leaking, a match to a flame
The path ahead mined past all knowing
A party of bomb throwers bent on destruction
Democracy stretched thin and bowing
The nexus awaits the will of the people
This election is one we’ll take pride in
Get out the vote, hold their feet to the fire
There is no other vote ‘cept for Biden
On edit: got so caught up in reworking the original I lost all track of time! October doesn’t rhyme as well, making it true doggerel I suppose.
