As pandering pols
romance the Tea Partiers,
they imbibe madness.
*****
Tea Party blood lust:
Leave uninsured man to die —
GOP scares me.
*****
Republican pols
cater to greedy donors—
putting people last.

Here’s some pretty cool news news! I’ve just sold two limericks and one haiku to the upcoming political humor anthology, Jest Patriotic (Let There Be Laughter Series): Hack This Limerick; Running From Mistakes; and Torture Bill Haiku.
So, who says crime … uh, I mean poetry … doesn’t pay?
The political humor anthology’s due out in May, but their money humor anthology Cash In On Laughter is already out. And I’m pleased to say that two of my money humor columns appear in that anthology, as well.
