Standing amongst his peers <br />He says, (to quote another) “Lend me your ears” <br />For I have wit to share <br />Saying what no one else would dare. <br /> <br />“I am the one who knows <br />What is required to lessen the evil blows <br />Of fiancé and societies, woes. <br />Listen up, here is how it goes.” <br /> <br />“Say so many things that the listener will find <br />Something of which is good for his kind <br />And will follow you till the end, <br />All you have to do is call him, my friend.” <br />(As in: my friend, Sarkozy.) <br /> <br />Alas, the group of twenty assembled <br />Has heard this all before and were chagrined <br />To hear him tell, <br /> They must remain under his spell. <br /> <br />In the group picture of the world’s leaders <br />He seems to be absent before the photographers <br />For he was off on flight to places for him to speak <br />Of visions (spiced with humor, of course) that the masses seek. <br /> <br />So away he goes appearing before those who want to hear <br />America’s “Jester in Chief” wearing asses ears.. <br /> <br />s<br /><br />Sidi J.
