Another Heckler Discarded


The CNN International guide to graphics.
How to lose friends
(in 10 days)
w/o trying.
Petraeus tries to persuade us
w/ numbers and graphs
Question marks and unclean spikes.
You know what Twain the junky said.
Persuade us, betray us.
Joint committee puff puff.

Petraeus wears a military toupee.
The heckler i.e. the citizen
of constipated viewpoint
(when WAS the last election?)
(and did I sleep through it?)
Oh yes, the heckler
will be escorted
says old Ike Skeleton
chairman
and chief speech mumbler mumbler
cookie crumbler.
What is the state of al Qaeda Iraq?
the fifty first state...

An hour into Petraeus
and WE
oh yeah, the people
have nothing
null Ø
empty set
empty and upset
empty and on the loveseat
passed out and pissed off

The heckler was our oversight
One voice for a nation numbed
by the neo-doctor's prescription
of confusion and deadlines
re-elect me in the morning.
The heckler said

Just when exactly will these troops be removed?

A question that cut like glass,
and that the brass
saw right through.
Again mr. skelton
the skeleton
instructed that the democrat
(small d, i.e. the unimportant kind)
would be excorted from the room
arms flailing, flip-flops dragging
against the war-worn marble floor.

Rubber screeching against marble
That sound...

That was the Q & A, the T & A
the AT&T—
the anti-trusted FAQ.

It had to be broken up.
One heckler is two too money.
The democracy is alive,
dear prophet.

Another heckler discarded.
