A Bushy-tailed sonnet
by Gerald Bosacker
in Journal issue January-February 2005
January 23, 2005
Bush sent his soldiers solving the world’s disorder,
organized by the top dogs of business domain,
absolving crimes they’ve done inside our border.
They created Homeland Security to brashly arraign
each traitorous fool who might dare complain.
George is brilliant say his powerful friends,
who bank-rolled the Bush election campaign,
and wait for obscene tax cuts as dividends.
Our tax surplus, which Bush so militant spends
will finance a kingdom for Saddam’s elite corps
while our Bill of rights, he blithely suspends.
Crusaders for God or Oil, wage virtuous war,
but worse than wars fought for that God or greed
are wars engineered just for his reelection need.
