I wonder from afar?
Who will drive the Bush-Cheney getaway car?

Why Madonna - WHY?
I despair -
Being the ONLY guy with whom she has not had an affair?

Senator Larry Craig and his Car Accident
Leaving the airport made him glum!
He and his male friend's car - wrecked 'em?

Sarah Palin Meets Hamid Karzai
While she can see Russia from her house,
Russians actually occupied his Afghan house for him to grouse!

Cow Chips for a Brain
Ricky has cow chips for a brain!
Incredibly insane!
Completely inane!
King of the vain!
Yahoo of disdain!
Plans for Texas just lame!
Education plan a shame!
Revenue plan no one can explain!
Really just a head game!
Yarn that Texas overcame!

Forthright Action Knocksout Evil
What evil would he hatch?
As bad the the pirate Edward Thatch!
Even wears a sinister eye patch!
Abominable actions by the batch!
Would evil the good catch?
Would evil to good attach?
Would evil away the good latch?
Final victory by good did snatch!
Good triumphed without even a scratch!
All in this professional wrestling match!

The Wars of Kenny Marchant and George W. Bush
Hiding during the Vietnam War,
You are now both supporters of Iraq gore!
Perfectly content,
Others' lives to be spent!
Course America now must stay,
Real American values you both betray!
Into another hopeless morass,
Totally ignoring your own obscure Vietnam pasts!
Expect history not to be kind,
Sidesteppeing Vietnam service to later have America maligned!

Tale of Tiger Tail?
Tiger's dazed and feelin' kinda frail!
Incredibly tryin' to late night drive by braille?
Gosh darn fire hydrant and tree!
Escalade crumpled - and now all over the tv!
Rescued by his fearless missus?
Wantonly swingin' a nine iron midst Swedish heroic hisses?
Oh - that Tiger had such luck?
Only next time - he should remember to duck?
Don't drive to play that dangerous nocturnal 19th hole?
Simply forget it - and go with Elin for a long stroll?
He reaches for his wood?
Then, she reaches for her iron?

Fragments and Sorrows of Gary Shaw
Man divided?
Extraordinarily multi-sided?
All state football player.
Texas eventual naysayer?
Observer of the offensive?
Notably pensive?
Thoughtful book?
Hallowed culture royally shook?
Envious Howard Cosell and best seller lists proclaimed his veneration?
Hemingway potential of his generation?
Overcome by his inner ghosts -
Only to be so tauntingly close -
Falling into the depths of the perpetually morose!
'They raise cattle and football players in Texas. The cattle are better treated' - the late Gary Shaw in 'Meat on the Hoof'
