12 JULY TWO OLD MEN AND THE TRUTH

Posted by: a.newspoet - Posted on:

ROGER STONE IS FOND OF HOMBURG HATS

ALWAYS ENJOYED THE SPATS OF POLITICAL LIFE  

RIFE WITH STRIFE  

 PUNKING OPPONENTS IS WHAT HE CALLS TRADECRAFT  

NEVER MIND IF HIS SHAFTING SPEARS THE TRUTH  

EVISCERATED BEYOND RECOGNITION   

OLD STONE COLD ROGER WON’T LET HIMSELF GET HET UP ABOUT THAT  

NOW SPARED JAIL BY THE PRESIDENT’S DECREE 

THE TRUTH+NOTHING BUT WILL NEVER BE FORCED UPON HIM    

ANTHONY FAUCI SPEAKS BROOKLYN 

NOT NOISY+LOUD GESTURES  ONLY THE VOWELS ROUNDED UP TO THAT BIG CITY SOUND 

 AT 79  SOME STORMS HE’S WEATHERED 

STILL TETHERED TO HIS POST AS DIRECTOR OF THE NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF ALLERGY+INFECTIOUS DISEASES 

DESPITE THE WHITE HOUSE IGNORING HIS ADVICE  NO SIGN OF FRUSTRATION OR ANGER

MORE THAN ADHERENCE SO HUMBLE HIS SUBSERVIENCE TO

TRUTH 

WISHING THAT DR FAUCI WAS STILL THE MODEL FOR ALL PUBLIC OFFICIALS   
YOURS TRULY
