INTERNECINE
George W. Bush, President of our first “ochlocracy”
Condolezza Rice, Secretary of Bush’s debauchery
Dick Cheney, Vice President of duplicity
Donald Rumsfeld, Defense Secretary of futility
 
Iraq’s Government, puppets who do not understand
Nothing they can do without George’s right hand,
Afghanistan, the model for our democratic strong man
Is falling back into the hands of the Taliban
 
Israel, a proxy of America’s war machine
Hezbollah, a military extension of Iran’s regime
Fouad Siniora, Lebanon’s Prime Minister only by name
Hammas’ Victory, impeded by Israel and America’s game
 
Goodness sake! With all this “fiction”
No wonder we have so much “friction,”
And unless each party gives their equal “pound of flesh”
Between East and West, we would have no rest!
