Poem

Boyish enthusiasm sweeps all before it

in his pink-and-blue heart

Donald Rumsfeld is all palpitations

by golly, all pink-and-boyish,

all blue palpitations of his enthusiasm

in his heart of hearts, Donald

golly-and-pink, in his Rumsfeld

boyish before all, before palpitations

and pink and blue-boyish, by golly

his enthusiasm! his heart! his Donald!

The people are flat wrong, golly-forces

all flat and Iraqi, denigrating his heart.

Security sweeps all before it, all people

who’ve been pink, who’ve been boyish.

Donald Rumsfeld is flat and blue.

Denigrating, by golly! That’s not boyish!

The Iraqi security is strong in the heart,

Rumsfeld forces, not wrong, not wrong

in the heart, all blue palpitations.

By golly, pinks Donald. By golly, by golly.
