Seeking Rhyme and Reason In Politics These Days

Great victory, Boris!
Still reading Horace?
Dear me, Jeremy,
his own worst enemy.
And Nigel Farage?
 must be still at large.
Has Donald Trump
got caught in a sump?
Is Vladimir Putin
for world power still rootin'?
Emmanuel Macron
is still getting on.
Angela Merkel
rhymes with "Ferkel'.
which means little pig.'
Who cares a fig?
Do we live in a time
when nothing can rhyme?
