Rumsfeld replaced after poll loss

It's difficult in times like these
to write a happy poem
for how can we, the framers of history,
catalyze this joy with an image?
The Capitol bustles with movers in the halls,
but surely still, in an office somewhere
there is a fat man putting himself
into an intern. When the cars explode in Baghdad
surely there is chocolate for the soldiers
to offer the children. Don,
you admit there are
known knowns, and known unkowns
and unknown unkowns, but where the fuck
are you hiding Osama Bin Laden.
