O Tempora! O Mores!

This poem was written near the end of the Bush administration. O Tempora! O Mores! My good friends! These last injurious years we endured Under another feckless George will end Soon. We suffered immensely rest assured. O Tempora! O Moses! What is this Nation coming to? No Philippic words Can ease the angst. Let us not reminisce Those years. What's past is past. Let's look forward. Oh, the times! Oh, god help us! Give us strength To overcome the damage done by him. Bear in mind his influence will, at length Be gone. In six months we shall sing this hymn: We praise the lord for this land of plenty Ridding us of George Bush and Dick Cheney.
