Finally neoCHENEY

Look upon him, ye who would-be
mighty & repair to the District’s suites
where he was once walled, reveered.
Finally neoCHENEY we’ve had enuf of;
haven't we seen B&W TV's McCarthy
exuding filamentary power with lies
rewoven by pretension, unravelling
week by disturbing week? Only his
pre-convinced enjoy his rearguing
unvarnished semi-truths, his wooden
image semi-cybernetic, half-alive
among us, automatically speaking
his message, grimly us rehectoring...

Bswaf

Wordlocked

After shopping @Target
for a Wordlock ™ lock
for each of my old ‘70s
Shogun 10-speeds, I pick
my Polish nick-name
for my combo. No more
sets of keys for these,
I think, Who’d ever think
of Bswaf as my combo?

CHENEY shuffles

CHENEY shuffles his worn,
marked deck of face-cards
of himself, thinking aloud:
My next administration
will be totally trustworthy,
like Scooter, loyal to me
& me alone; first, I’ll issue
a $100 stamp with my face
on it & then a $100,000-bill,
with my face on it, & then
an invisible CHENEY tank.

Other White Meat

As massive as Mussolini,
Rush dresses al Duce,

anOther White Meat,

aggrandizing power
by the pound.

recalling Atlantis

a true story

Lives later, she recalls
Atlantis executing her,
6 arrows piercing her
at noon against a wall.

D.C. TOUR

"They removed
Pursuit of Happiness
from their currency,
replacing it with
In God We Trust,"
observed our guide
to the ruins of D.C.,
"their Despoiled City,
useful for instruction,"
without elucidation.

Our Stalin, CHENEY

Our Stalin, CHENEY
preaches loyalty to anyone
loyal to him, proving steel's
stainless despite defeat, if
VPOTUS is engraved on it.
