G.O.P.

by Joyce Kilmer, with embellishments from jla

I think that I shall never see
A poem so lovely as the G.O.P.

A G.O.P. whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the Alaskan National Wildlife Refuge's sweet flowing breast;

The G.O.P. that looks at God all day,
And lifts her star-spangled arms to pray;

A G.O.P. that may in Summer wear
A nest of endangered fauna in her hair;

Upon whose bosom 'global warming' snow has lain,
Who intimately lives with rain.

The Democrats are fools you see,
God really loves the G.O.P.
