Owed to Un-democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Sen. Charlie Schumer
\nHanding down his pronouncements
\nA speech knot quiet free
\nHad to efface a constituent rising
\nDelivering his rebuke
\nWith aside of genocide
\nAs up Chuck on the podium
\nAnd citizen Schumer in Sen.-like contempt
\nMade his democratic pronouncement
\n\u201cThey didn\u2019t come to hear you.\u201d
\nStill
\nIn the foolness of time
\nThat grave day will come
\nWhen this Charley hoarse on democracy
\nWill
\nMeat
\nHis own
\nDemise
\nAnd the unherd won\u2019t be there
\nAt his bequest
\nThey didn\u2019t come
\nTo here you<\/p>\n
