IRAQI HAIKU

by Frank Johnson

Republican Spring.
The Prince puts on his rape-face.
Syphilis of soul.

O World Trade Center!
Lies have made you a weapon
of mass deception.

President Fartlet:
hit hard with the stupid-stick.
Little Fudge-Drawers.

Vice President Dick:
He needs a high colonic.
That's where his heart dwells.

Condoleezza Rice:
Oval Office S&M?
War-Dominatrix.

Donald H. Rumsfeld:
anally-retentive dude.
(He's never been laid.)

Tony Blair, I'm scared.
Your secret lobotomy.
How else to explain?

Dear Colin Powell
(morally ambiguous):
George lied; thousands died.

In Moab, Utah,
chagrin: Chamber of Commerce.
Mother Of All Bombs.

Butcher of Baghdad?
A doe-eyed armless boy weeps.
George W. Bush

Look no further for
Weapons of Mass Destruction:
John Ashcroft's skivvies.

Now Bush eyes Iran,
or just maybe Syria.
What would Satan do?

Bob Hope died last night:
war condensed to one-liners.
Knock-knock. Who's there? (Death)
