The Web Poetry Corner - J. M. Hallett - Cheney

Cheney

by

J. M. Hallett

People were always comparing
Dick Cheney with ol’ Dick Nixon
But Cheney had his Patriot Act
And his Guantanomo Bay detentions
He had his secret prisons in Europe
And his black-ops and dirty-pools
And by corrupting the Justice Department
He was assured he could break any rule
He made sure that always behind him
Was the machinery of the state
And as he wielded his demonic powers
He made Nixon look like a saint
That monster was more in a league
With Hussein or Pinochet
And how many have "disappeared," I fear
He may never be made to say

NEXT?
Why don't you look at An Angel past my window winged
