senator
as matador..
each time out
taking the bull by the horns
those proverbial storms
where there wasn't ever...a time out
except at the end; each end

ever ready Teddy

frequented a forum
where he was lauded as Lion
his own Zion
lain with wreaths of The Liberal
where he lived thru
and
saw death ::upfront & personal
seen it as quite the serial
a lawmaker
who
dealt with haymakers
both his own
& others
the youngest of his brothers
an average Joe..

say it ain't so
one who cajoled, cried, played,
and
witnessed first hand
the rallies & rallying points
of
angels & demons

worked
bi-partisan, yet an artisan
one who played The Game quite well
True American icon with
polytricks you’d
feel.
