John Berryman - Dream Song 23: The Lay of Ike
Work rating: Low

This is the lay of Ike.
Here`s to the glory of the Grewt White—awk—
who has been running—er—er—things in recent—ech—
in the United—If your screen is black,
ladies & gentlemen, we—I like—
at the Point he was already terrific—sick

to a second term, having done no wrong—
no right—no · right—having let the Army—bang—
defend itself from Joe, let venom` Strauss
bile Oppenheimer out of use—use Robb,
who`ll later fend for Goldfine—Breaking no laws,
he lay in the White House—sob!!—

who never understood his own strategy—whee—
so Monty`s memoirs—nor any strategy,
wanting the ball bulled thro` all parts of the line
at once—proving, by his refusal to take Berlin,
he misread even Clauswitz—wide empty grin
that never lost a vote (O Adlai mine).
