He Loved Them So Much
For Putin so loved America
That he gave up his only Syria
That the weapons of mass destruction
May give way to those of lesser destruction
And that he may for once if not for always
Be featured favorably on New York Times
And other influential American newspapers
In the hope that one day soon or not so soon
When he defects to the West he may be received
As a hero, not only in the United States of America
But all around the world excepting only Russia
Which must then pretend to condemn him
As a sellout no doubt but well knowing
That they had sent him to the West
To head the KGB in Washington
Which though dead to idiots
Is very much alive to those
Like me who have always
Doubted that Russia
Would cede much
Ground in the
Sly World of
Espionage!
