Yet Another Reason Why I Rarely Read Poetry

Saddam Writing Poetry in Prison

My guess is that the stuff is like this poem Eddie Murphy recited as Mister Robinson back in the 80s on SNL:

Images by Tyrone Greene (Performed by Eddie Murphy (date unknown))
Dark and lonely on a summer's night

Kill my landlord
Kill my landlord
Watchdog barking
Do he bite?
Kill my landlord
Kill my landlord
Slip in his window
Break his neck
Then his house
I start to wreck
Got no reason What the heck
Kill my Landlord
Kill my landlord
C-I-L-L my l a n d l o r d

(It may not read funny, but it viewed funny)

Just substitute "Bush" for "Landlord" and suspect that we are pretty close.

Update: This poetic interlude is part of today's Beltway Traffic Jam.
