Montgomery County: look here
This peremptory measure I fear
To close all your schools-
Just means you are fools
“Five inches of snow?” Nowhere near!

Barackracy tries to use fireplace, recreates West Wing episode
January 26, 2009
It took the new staff merely days
To near set the building ablaze
Temp’ratures cold
Don’t help them to mold
A fix for our fiscal malaise
This feels a bit like de ja vu
Of episode 10, Season 2
Josh & Sam’s scene
Woke Martin Sheen
It’s proof that the West Wing is true!

Inaugural swag for purple ticket holders
January 23, 2009
The purple tix tunnel of doom
Was the snag that did cause the most gloom
In line folks did wait
‘Til close of the gate
Then gave up to watch from their room
If you were a part of that queue
The PIC’s got stuff for you
Your own color print
To give you a hint
Of what you’d have seen with a view
-D.L.
Dude, he spoke everywhere else along the ride
January 18, 2009
Arriving into Union Station
Where crowds waited with such elation
The masses dismayed
He went straight to his ‘cade
No wave, much less great oration
-D.L.
I had been wondering about this…

The word from the lib’ral elite
To people who live on the street
They’ll bus you away
At least for the day
Come Wednesday, you’re back to concrete
DC’s not the first to coerce
With incentives designed to disperse
Any state, you can pick it
And purchase a ticket
Just leave here and they’ll reimburse
-D.L.
Regarding Yesterday’s Emergency Plane Landing in the Hudson
January 16, 2009
“The engines blew out!” – We deduce
That the plane has flown into a goose
Now safe on the banks
Of the Hudson, give thanks
At least it was not a bull moose

Emergency cashmoneys for DC
January 14, 2009
With one million folks thought to show (maybe more)
A 30 percent chance of snow (not hardcore)
DC’s not a state
Which is why we’re irate
That we’re having to spend so much dough (and what for?)
But on this Inaugural eve (merely days)
It seems we’ve been granted reprieve (and a raise)
At Fenty’s request
We get a gold chest
Of change in which I can believe (’cause it pays)
-D.L.
