The 23rd Qualm

(Written by a retired Methodist minister.)


Bush is my shepherd; I dwell in want.

He maketh logs to cut down in national forests.

He leadeth trucks into the still wilderness.

He restoreth my fears.

He leadeth me in 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 thou art in office.

Thy tax cuts for the rich, and thy media control, they
discomfort me.

Thou preparest an agenda of deception in the presence
of thy religion.

Thou anointest my head with foreign oil.

My health insurance runneth out.

Surely megalomania and false patriotism shall follow
me all the days of thy term.

And my jobless child shall dwell in the basement forever.
