A Poe-etic Cheer for the Election Year:

Bush and Gore! Bush and Gore!
Already we find you both a bore
And deeply globalist to the core.
We wish to see you: Nevermore!

Bush is expert on the lore
Of the border from the war
Bypassing 'Nam in the Texas Air Corp,
(That's how he missed the mess offshore).

Environment! we heard from Gore
In his book sold at the store.
Overpopulation he did abhor
When distant — not at the door.

Bush and Gore! Bush and Gore!
Alike on issues we deplore.
On immigration they have rapport —
We know they both will call for more.

— B.W.
