Don't You Hate When This Happens

     A burr stuck smack-dab in the back
     of his white tuxedo
     Everyone pointing at it
     He couldn’t quite reach it though 

     Balked at removing his tux
        No idea of what it was 
        His life on hold

Yep, burrs on tux are as bad as Trump's Burr. Another Republican only in name.

Except, of course, for your seconding of the emotion...

Then we could have seen a first -- a 'saddle-burst.'
