The pederasts were pederasting,
The sycophants were sycophanting
and Washington was awash in the slime of politics
when suddenly the three wise monkeys
burst into the committee room
beating on drums and demanding
an end to the teaching of Darwinism or any
theory that related them, even distantly,
to such a debauched creature as man.
Meanwhile, the homeless were trying
to form a union so each of them
could have a pot and a window.
Can you imagine the gall? A pot and a window!
