John Lithgow Instagram – My illustration for “The Tortoise and the Hare,” a tale in verse from TRUMPTY DUMPTY WANTED A CROWN. McConnell’s the tortoise, Obama’s the hare, and Dumpty? He’s the razorback hog. Here’s a taste:
“The Tortoise (named Mitch) was renowned for his guile,
The Senate majority’s leading reptile,
While the Hare was the POTUS, a flashy young mammal
Whose smile was a sunbeam of gleaming enamel.
“The quick-witted Hare (whose name was Barack)
Floated programs the Tortoise endeavored to block.
As fast as the Hare could devise and propose them,
The crusty old Tortoise would try to bulldoze them.” | Posted on 30/Jul/2020 21:33:59
