Some Thoughts about the State of the Union

The 23rd Qualm

(Written by a retired Methodist minister.)

Bush is my shepherd; I dwell in want.
He maketh logs to be cut down in national forests.
He leadeth trucks into the still wilderness.
He restoreth my fears.
He leadeth me in the paths of international disgrace for his ego's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of pollution and war,
I will find no exit, for Bush art in office.
His tax cuts for the rich and his media control, they discomfort me.
He preparest an agenda of deception in the presence of his religion.
He anointest my head with foreign oil.
My health insurance runneth out.
Surely megalomania and false patriotism shall follow me all the days of his term,
And my jobless child shall dwell in my basement forever
