An Ode to George Bush

A boy once lived in the land
of giant dreams and giant dreamers.
He felt very small.

Big dreams would come and go,
appear then vanish. Most dreams
had to do with becoming
'King of the Rat Race.'

The big dreams were like
huge balloons...when launched
people claimed they would
fly forever, with no end in sight.

As they climbed higher and higher
they became smaller and smaller, until...
they disappeared.
