Eskimo Knell

You may smirk, if you wish,
At the names of my kids
And scoff at my hairdo
But then ponder this
When you're thinking of me as
Just one big girl’s blouse
In less than four years
I will own a White House.

You can joke that I’m pro-life
And go out shooting bear
And cutting down forests
For oil. I don't care.
You can laugh that
In spite of my family’s case
I say apes are distinct
From the pure human race.

You can sneer if you like
At my kid’s friends as well
Just remember that I’ll
See you all roast in Hell.
Teach our daughters creation
And not birds and bees
As they fuck for virginity
I’ll fight for peace.

Of Washington ploys
You know I’ll have none
But they’d do what I told them
At the point of a gun.
You can sneer if you like
As the grim reaper’s callin’
You voted McCain
What you’ll get is a Palin.

In a list

    Nice write

    I guess time will tell who is right and who is wrong, but I venture to say.... its all shades of gray.
    Finding correctness in the light of day
    vote this and vote that way
    its all shades of gray.....

    Who is to say
    Palin must stay
    Who is to say
    Obama is gay

    I don't know the truth of it
    but I suspect all the twits
    will vote two different ways
    and in November someone
    will have the last say...

    wonderful satire, really highlighting the future potential disaster america has in store in bold.

    the intresting thing about palin, is that even tho she claims to vote for life, in terms of a teenage woman being raped and having to keep the child, she supports the death peanlty? haha.

    I like the first stanza, it's witty and fun.
    Then again, this entire poem is.
    Well-written, although it was difficult to find a subject.
    That's fine though, I enjoyed it.
    Good work, keep it up.
    Thank you for sharing

    For about 1/2 second I thought this was serious (scarey!) and then I burst out laughing. A very good read, and I enjoyed it -- so glad to have someone able to write political commentary in fine poetry during these depressing times.

    Very sweet rhyming. Thought I have no good idea about the subject you talk about, I could understand this poem very well... The subtelty works for me very well.
    Fine job there.
    Love

    Very funny...hey people in the spotlight as whacked out as she is, deserve some mavericky satire. It's all in fun and if for nothing else she is fun..Fun to look at, fun to talk about and fun to pick on. Hopefully she won't win we just did 8 years of hard time with one big joke in the white house. It's really time for us to get serious if the economy is not enought to wake people up then I guess we are doomed. Great satire here!

    Dear god, I really do hope that Palin is never elected vice president because McCain certainly will die in office. He's just too old to take on that much stress, but she's a dimwit when it comes to politics. This country is sooooo doomed.

      Wrote it for one of Edna's contests but, as usual, got it finished after the closing date. What the hell... Good to see you about, though, and thanks for the comment and so on.
