Grovel for the Gavel (& h/t to TCG!) [1]

Tall City Girl prompted me to pursue poetry after my quip “Grovel for the Gavel” about the R’s Speaker’s race circus…so here it is:

GROVEL for the GAVEL

A flurry of flubulous fools,

Laughably looking for leadership.

They’ve abandoned the regular rules,

Shamelessly seeking the Speakership.

.

This riotous rabble and their blubbering babble,

Whose hollow heads rattle in their bumbling battle

— As they grovel for the gavel !

.

Sadly, they strive to seem serious

While they harass, intimidate, and threaten;

But, they’re absolutely ridiculous,

Wildly wielding their not-quite-secret weapon.

.

They’re big on the gamble, too haphazard to handle;

So let the liars all haggle, and the contenders all scramble

— As they grovel for the gavel !

.

These traitors truly are treasonous,

And their goons are grossly inept;

Their politics are pathetic and poisonous,

Their boorish behavior as bad as it gets!

.

This goose-stepping gaggle relentlessly rambles,

As the crime-family cabal continues to unravel

— As they grovel for the gavel !

.

Now acting decidedly delirious,

Rationality and reason upset them;

Such crass, crazy antics should worry us —

They’ll burn it all down if we let them!

.

Too timid to tackle the Tramp in the saddle,

Who herds them like cattle — we’re gonna get trampled!

— As they grovel for the gavel !

.

.
