Part of him
Was paralysed
From the waist down,
And part of him
Was paralysed
From the waist up.
But that did not prevent him
From chairing an important
Senate committee.
And he led a remarkably rich
Internal life.
He could identify the reason why
The military-industrial complex
Needed hamburgers
Financed by the illicit drugs trade
In Israel,
To drop unnecessary bombs
On Lebanon, Gaza, Iraq and Afghanistan.
And he knew the difference between
Donald Christ and Jesus Duck.
He was a truly great American.
