Author’s note: What follows is a tribute to the work of my esteemed colleague and friend, Aquinas Wired, in the style of his outstanding blog, The Quark in the Road.
Now it’s December thirty-first
and politics seem at their worst.
(Do not give yourself a rash,
of course I’m aping Ogden Nash.)
I’ve read all of Bob Woodward’s “Fear:
Trump in the White House” —
and the contest for best title here
is finished in apartment house.
I trust Bob Woodward got things right,
comfort to me on this night.
So as Nash wrote, readers dear,
“Duck! Here comes another year!”

As always, grateful I am, friend.
And welcome to political verse
Whereby with rhyme we hope to mend
For better what has gotten worse.
You're welcome, friend. I'm not sure how much other political verse, but the hope of mending is strong. Happy new year!
