Another perspective on the Oregon situation

This latest of crazy militias
Finds a fate we might best call delicious:
Despite what they're packing,
They've nothing for snacking,
Which makes them both starved and seditious.

I'm greatly in awe of Chloe Moretz
My email inbox is getting too full
Those words that we dread
No more chicken thread
Orrex needs to read the Dune series

My poetry needs work, I think.

"Hello Muddah, Hello Faddah. I never should have left Nevada.
People are laughing, making fun of us.
Please send ticket for the next homebound Greyhound bus."

With apologies to Allan Sherman.

Now things are turning to the cannibal
Once the lights go out
They fear to hear a shout
as that will be about
the biting of a friend in ...
The End

There once were some gun nuts from Nevada
Whose cock lengths were measured in angstroms
Give me not a hard time
I know it don't rhyme
But it's better than what they're doing in Oregon

Alas, Poor Fluffy Unicorn
I knew him, Ammon, well...
At least I thought I did.
The combat Marine persona Buddha inhabited
Until he jackrabbited
And all we're left with
Is the exposé and the vid.

A revolution
Starts in a wildlife refuge?
Their plan's for the birds.
