Ode to Sarah Palin

sarah_palinInspired by Tannerleah’s post, I offer this Ode to Sarah Palin. All double entendres intended. :-)

 

 

 

 

Fallen from grace, glory behind,
Sarah mourns her losses.
Her point guard skills
failed to position her rightly;
Her Miss Wasilla smile wasn’t
bright enough to place the nation’s
hands on the voting stick.

She worked hard in her four schools,
but her knowledge was not well laid.  
It was not her fault! Two were
but community college;
How could she know geography
would be required? 

Sarah’s positions remain flexible and
strong; five children are the fruit
of her labor. Alaska holds its
blue-chilled breath – will she birth
another one or lead her brood
on a hike across the Bering Strait?
It is so close – she can see it
from her window.

    Now that you mention it, Sarah really never has won anything has she? I still love her. Excellent job!

      It’s as close win as she ever got.

      You love her? Explain…

        What’s to explain? She is crazy hot, brilliant, a hell of a hunter, makes babies at the blink of an eye, has some sort of x-ray vision and is crazy hot. Plus, she is a maverick.

    Nicely done PV and in record time. Sweet.

    HAHA. I laughed. I hate Sarah Palin. She is a joke—but I did love the poem.

    God, we can only hope her glory is behind her. I’m ready for her 15 minutes to be over.

    Well done!

      Thanks, omawarison. I agree! I was torn between writing this and putting her name out there again, and not extending her 15 minutes.

      But, what’s done is done. And national politics sure won’t be affected by this. ;-)

    Very nice Pamela. I particularly liked the closing.

    Hope you are well.

      Ram, thanks so much for visiting.

      I’m enjoying your new blog. One of my favorite aspects is the daily prison menu. Yum.

    This was brillant! I truly believe she has about 5 minutes left of her 15 minutes. Great job!

    This is the first and last time I will ever utter Sarah Palin and clever in the same breath. Thank you for the laugh!

    wow… “fallen from grace. …”

    how wonderfully predictive!

      I may be psychic…She used the point guard experience in her statement!

      In bowing out as Governor of Alaska, Sarah Palin harkened back to her high school basketball days – although there was no sign of the “Barracuda,” as she was nicknamed for her ability to cut through the opposing team’s offenses. In a hastily called press conference on the eve of a three-day holiday, Palin presented herself as a point guard exhausted by the “full court press from the national level.” The 2008 Republican vice-presidential nominee explained how the metaphorical point guard should respond. “She drives through a full court press, protecting the ball, keeping her head up because she needs to keep her eye on the basket, and she knows exactly when to pass the ball so that the team can win,” Palin said. “And I know when it’s time to pass the ball for victory.”
