Where the Music Is Something Grand


All the Gentry Will Be There!

advertises an Irish ballad.*
As in our Senate and House,

they're active, or their
designated ass-wipes.

Revelation?


Q&A, Legislature

-What’s the real difference between
The Senate and The House?

-Though both Performance Art,
Senate cool, House hot.

Genesis

Scoreless committees
and their like before

serving Senate or House.
Handling solid waste
or neighborhood stinks

back then, political individuals
have anyway paid their dues.

The corridors of power being flanked
by many a boring alcove--even
presently–-they deserve our thanks.

You bring up stealing,
your obsession. And a stretch.

Let's say a perk is seldom missed,
and not a few invented. Edisons
in the majority.

Senator

-House wants A, we want B, President wants C.

-Then compromise would be ABC.

-You’d think, but a brand new idea emerging.

-Isn’t that rare?

-Snow in Key West.

When the Revolution Peters Out

Oh, massacres still inflicted
on Left, Right, and Innocents.
Not, though, with requisite spirit.

The Rich, who had joined their
money in the Caymans, return

to buy each side. Senate recalled on
proviso that bribe-taking less ad hoc
and more coherent. House, who had

purloined in even greater chaotic
measure, invited to stay home.

The Supreme Court has died--
God bless them every one!--

in the dilated struggle. GE
insists it remain thus.

Packing a bag in Jackson,
Senator Hilbo laughs
"Tits on a bull anyways!"
