Janice Canerdy Poet Limerick

Suppress That Cough

One day when the POTUS was talking,
a muffled cough started him balking.
In arrogant boldness
and dismissive coldness,
he sent our poor Chief of Staff walking!




On June 17, when Trump was being interviewed, he
ordered Mick Mulvaney out of the Oval Office for coughing.
Mulvaney, who is the acting White House Chief of Staff,
also fills other positions.  POTUS--President of the United States

Written June 29, 2019, for Tania Kitchin's Limerick Contest
