Beyond All Comprehension

BEYOND ALL COMPREHENSION
By Roy Merritt
(A dated poem since Michele Bachmann is thankfully no longer in Congress)


I heard some news today
That promptly grabbed my attention
News beyond all belief
Beyond all comprehension

What might it be you say
What could cause me such distress
What could be just so unnerving
Leave me near mad more or less

But I’m sure if you gave it some thought
Pondered on it for a bit
You would certainly agree with me
You might even have a fit

The world has turned upside down
This news I cannot handle
Seems they’ve just appointed 
Michele Bachman to the Intelligence Panel

How ironic is this
How foolish and truly inane
For we all should certainly know
This woman is quite insane
