The President Wakes Up Laughing
The President Wakes Up Laughing
By Elton Camp
The president has been sleeping sound of late
Because of results that he had to view as great
Last night he suddenly awoke with delight
From a dream that was funny, not of fright
The GOP had decided its image to remake
And so a more fitting symbol it would take
The elephant had served them many a year
But another would make their position clear
He dreamed they considered a hawk & snake
But one different they finally decided to take
They said, “This will show our principles well
As all who see it will instantly be able to tell”
The president’s face into a grin did expand
He beheld the visage of a Neanderthal man
