Landward
Yirat Adonai...
Remember Odyssius and Penelope? Kirk Douglass? The Sirenes?
- Senator McCain,
- Remember how Odyssius pleaded with his sailing crew
- To tie him down, so he would not give in to the maidens of the sea?
- Yes, indeed. He eventually reaches his beloved,
- After having outwitted the sirenes...
- Think of the White House as your dear Penelope,
- Who weaves the carpet at day,
- And unravels it at night,
- To ward off all other potential lovers...
- The cheer leaders of your opponent do not matter, dear Senator;
- You are a polished marble; a tree with many rings;
- One that does not go away, but stays and endures...,
- And eventually - returns!
