C J Dennis - `KSmith`
Work rating: Low

Hoping you will not deem it rude,
I`d like to call an interlude
   In our remarkable array
   Of leading statesmen of the day,
And introduce to you forthwith
That great economist, Ksmith.

Not, as you might suppose, a myth,
But very real is Ksmith;
   For daily, in the morning train,
   I`m privileged to gauge his brain.
One glance inside his morning sheet,
And he has grasped it all complete.

He lays it down; and then, in wrath,
To patient travellers he holds forth.
   No question that the times involve,
   No problem is there he can`t solve.
One moment`s thought, and, quick as light,
Ksmith can put the country right.

Surely a statesman`s wasted here;
And I suggest, in nervous fear,
   That we might move to elevate
   Ksmith on high to guide the State;
Then we`d be saved.  And I might see
Less of Ksmith.  That would suit me.
