Joe and Jill
I prayed hard for Jill to be a wife- first
and a first lady, second.
I Prayed for her to finally let him rest
I prayed for the sad parade to come to an end.
I'm pretty sure he's stepping away
not because of divine intervention
but because his decline was lime lighted
the polls to the circus tent were collapsing...
Rest easy old man, I wish your last days
to be filled with endless tranquility.
(Far away from the cackle and clowns}
and filled with much needed dignity.
