On Washington's Sunday talk circuit
Big names are expected to work it
At the risk of suspicion
Many take a position
Assuming they later can shirk it.
- or -
By now it's abundantly clear
Under Washington's culture of fear
Some political hacks
Hid their sneaky attacks
While they ran up more debt every year.

Clever acrostics!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your suggestion re not using the word in my Acrostic Limerick. It's a good idea. I just changed line five's first word. But I can't decide which way I prefer it. Hmmmm. Please let me know what you think.
PS I changed it back after some comments from others about my change.
