a poem for you, gentle reader
Fat Asian Baby received this poem that appeared recently in the Washington Post in an email forward from mom (which would probably indicate that it's completely over), but since I enjoyed it, I thought I'd share it with you - and furthermore, I like to support emerging artists.
The poem is composed of actual quotes by GW Bush. Only for aesthetic purposes have the quotes been arranged to create the work.
MAKE THE PIE HIGHER
I think we all agree, the past is over.
This is still a dangerous world.
It's a world of madmen and uncertainty
And potential mental losses.
Rarely is the question asked
Is our children learning?
Will the highways of the Internet
Become more few?
How many hands have I shaked?
They misunderestimate me.
I am a pitbull on the pantleg of opportunity.
I know that the human being
And the fish can coexist.
Families is where our nation finds hope,
Where our wings take dream.
Put food on your family!
Knock down the tollbooth!
Vulcanize society!
Make the pie higher!
Make the pie higher!
