Politics in Haiku

Bush’s strategy,

despite folly in Iraq,

stays course of “screw it.”

 

Iran thinks it can

run with the nuclear ball

without wise coaching.

 

Connecticut’s Shays

fears Lieberman’s pro-war

and shifts to Lamont.

 

Rumsfeld’s irony

equates war critics to the

‘30's right wing wimps.

 

Home security

is now the jurisdiction

of Scotland Yard grit.
