What
Was it
That this
World
Was wanton
No more 
War
They scream
On capitol
Hills
And in 
The common
In Washington
Praying
This time
That those 
Motions 
Will pass...

The humid air presages rain
in my mind Sweet Georgia plays
yet a rebel flag briefly waved over Capitol Hill.
Together we strive for better days
but inside lies a bittersweet pain....

Dear dear Mo, my capitol friend
A Minister of Joy each morning she sends
An Ottawa leader of happiness
We citizens are blessed
Hope she's re-elected and her term doesn't end...

A muddle of voices
    all crying foul
  Cacophony's in now
    budding diplomats howl

  Scowls on their faces
    deceit in their hearts
  tourists buy scorecards
    to tell them apart...

Gleaming Capitol.
Alabaster stones shining bright.
Peoples history and hope.

Dark place of power.
Filled up with greed, lust and lies,
Destroyers of liberty.

If you think what happened was too bad,
Imagine, had he been elected...
Oh four more years of him
On American dream!
Think, world's a small price paid, and be glad.

Comedic contortionist claims clubfeet;
consider carefully, circus clowns cheat.
Chico chipped Carson City's carved concrete
clumsily chiseling cheap cardboard containers.
Charlatans can calm capitol complainers
confounding Congressional campaigners.

The democrat’s in quite a fight -
an umbrella could not end plight.
     The needles are fine,
     so rabies won’t shine.
It’s capital when a fox serves a bite.

On April 5th Representative Ami Bera was bitten by a fox
on the way to the Capital for votes.

Outside the Capitol
a young veteran is carrying
a flag, upside-down
and a wheeled coffin containing his friend
harsh words are tossed, and a Patriot
sneaks behind, robbing the deceased of his
combat boots. Fly off!
Ah, but quicker feet! Tackled from behind!
Punches thrown! A fight!
Who is winning?...

Birds on Capitol Hill
July 2010
Shoshana Vegh

Birds on Capitol Hill
Range from arid and dry grass
Sirens security forces
 Fourth of July tomorrow
 And converge for birthday
 Moving from north to south wind
 East to west
Do not hear the earthquake
Do not cry bitterly
Right in own way

 Just want to fly....

This daily dew danish blue doggy poo
Is in relation to a giant kangaroo
Which traveled to the capitol of Peru
To try the turkey stew
But the beef fondue gave it a purplish blue stomach flu
It tried to renew tried to review 
When it sailed through the thick shampoo
It fell into a field of glue and ran into a bomber crew...
