UNSEEMLY TO CRASH THE WORLD ECONOMY (Cantor In The Mist, Version 3) The gracious Lady from UK, Cousin Lady Erica* cries across the ocean blues forgotten your revolution, I see a U.S. congress of heath Your liberty choir has lost its voice. Hush little Pelosi and David Obey, Much ado about *Erica: Genus for Shrubs, rigid and branched, the heaths. Or person’s name.
Lady Erica, is astounded,
wonders if the Americans are
mortgaging themselves into socialism,
borrowing the rotten boroughs of olde
flooding the land of the free with
swamp swap toxic securities,
some sort of Donnybrook
(Sherlock Holmes couldn’t solve it)
to cousin Madison and his Specters†: you’ve
lifted an old tea ship adrift
the socialist moor of recent yore,
a fog and marsh imported.
peaty, bogged down in
quasi-stimulus. Look here
you ruffians, you
petty porkers afoul,
your sheep’s in the swamp,
the cow is in your heath
Hush petty Pelosi, let Eric Cantor sing.
The sheep are simply cowering,
the corn’s not in the cow
a thirteen dollar tax cut a week
won’t feed the middle class, not
any more than pap will do it
the Shrub League players.
†A ghost or a last name: Senator Arlen Specter, one of three Republican senators voting with the Democrats.
Representative Eric Cantor of Virginia, the Republican whip.
(House minority leader, Representative John A. Boehner of Ohio).
Speaker Nancy Pelosi of California.
Representative David R. Obey of Wisconsin, chairman of the Appropriations Committee.
