Kyrsten Sinema's not-so-surprising surprise announcement came too late in the week to be recognized in verse. But there's time now. The first reader to submit something on the subject was N.S. in North Hollywood, CA:
There's a self-serving senator, Kyrsten
To hold onto her power, she's thirstin'
When she observes paths
To screw Democrats
She makes sure she's one of the first in
However, N.S. learned that day that this limerick is built around an incorrect pronunciation of the Senator's name, and so sent in this update:
There's something I'd like to announce
I failed to correctly pronounce
I, in my rush to be first in,
Said, "senator, [KURR-sten]"
KEER-sten's who I meant to denounce
Here is the assessment of J.E. in Boone, NC:
With Raphael Warnock elected
And the Running Back Walker rejected
The Democrats' win despite Sinema's sin
Will not be so highly affected
And to wrap it up, P.L. in Morelia, Mexico.:
Ex-Democrat Senator Sinema
Just fed her ex-party some venom-a.
Perhaps, it's a pity;
Perhaps, even shi**y.
But I'm still trying to not rhyme with enema.
We'll see what tomorrow brings; here is the e-mail address for submissions. (Z)
