Notes About The Poem

Fly On the Wall

Rep. Kevin McCarthy is powwowing 
      with Pro-Trump, QAnon-loving kook, Greene.

                 The big contentious meeting!
            So is he taming Jezebel as we speak?

          Nope, they're having a wonderful dinner, 
      eating with plastic utensils; no sharpened knives 
              to slice and dice each other up with. 

    Oh, and Greene keeps the job McCarthy gave her!
                    
                    It's all love between the two!
           They're playing thumb wars and patty-cake
   and rhapsodizing about you know who, bantering about 
                           who loves him more.

           No raised voices, just friends "catching up"
             The punishment? ha! What punishment?
                    That's up to the Senate Dems. 

      Sorry to report, McCarthy will not lower the boom 
          on controversial Greene and cross Corleone, 
                    oops, excuse me, wrong Don! 

                      They'll wrap their meeting
                      video-calling the right one, 
                  and they'll exchange I-love-yous

                            Move along, folks. 
                              There's nothing 
                                to see here...

Yep, they're lost without Trump, Jenna! It's quite sad.
