Debate
Since both parties
brought a pulse
for this occasion,
exchanges proved lively,
often raucous. That's
politics. Fitfully, grace-
ful thoughts plopped in,
but raw stump points
rendered the very air
retarded. So what?
Back to Lincoln-Douglas,
consecrated by History
and as full of baloney.
Again, politics, boys ‘n
girls. Animals roaming
far savannas terrify
but lack rhetoric.
