Dodging the Shoe

Dodging the Shoe By Elton Camp The flying shoe, Hillary didn’t faze Nor did justifiable indignation blaze Calmly and quickly she did duck The attacker was then out of luck Her comeback was right on line Handling the situation just fine To a public figure, gross disrespect From some there’s none else to expect Her accomplishment unable to minimize So resorting to violence is no surprise May the attacker spend time in the clink To make those similarly disposed think To oppose her philosophy is okay Shoe throwing isn’t the right way
