The Art of the DOGE DO-D-GE

DOGE DO(D)GE is a game:
Accepting praise - never blame.
It's a dodge all right!

DO(D)GE shifts Left - then Right;
Disruptive through winds of change.
It's a dodge all right!

DO(D)GE bans brains and skills;
Destroys the best in its wake.
It's a dodge all right!

DO(D)GE is a sink-hole;
A real musky, murky mire.
It's a dodge all right!

But, when DOGE expires
GOPhers will be paid their due!
No DOGE dodge for them.

For extremism 
In defense of any goal
Is no DOGE virtue!
