EFFERVESCENT BLEEDERSHIP By Bedros Afeyan Effervescent, glutinous, elastic, ornate Equivocal endorsement, heart belt, hosted head Dismal doubt for the sincerity of the sinner Drowns the premise of the sin grinders instead. Make a fish smile or a lion swim Let a muscle twitch or a battle blossom Let the country sink in jingo driven jungles Far away desert gold protected by our armored castles. Let history deplete the motives as its narrative tussles Crucial facts obliterate the dust of their threats divine Politics presume pretension will gurgitate revisions Till brown masses of pint size braggarts make Texas logic lord and prances. Rings of clinging interests spin favors to anoint beltway branders Select dodgers of moral morsels in favor of cruel cunning phrase-masters Replenished weapons of TV Fox trot of improvised expletive devices Permeate the Bible belt, the red stated intellectual segregates, all plastered. But majesty clings to the promise of our land and luster Presiding belts and boots belie muted jelly belly thunder The rich streak loyal, richer progress, fuller coffers Earmarked love letters embroidered, encrusted. Leadership rudder as articulate as arid flavors flung Pundits, parasites, consultants, glowing euphoric Facts figure light in dungeons jangled, never mastered Guileless guzzlers of neo-nonsense preying on attendant disasters.
