The Poetry of Sarah Palin

Themes: Poetry

The Poetry of Sarah Palin. – By Hart Seely – Slate Magazine

If knowing how to field dress a moose doesn’t get you in the mood. Check out Sarah Palin’s more sensitive side. And then slip over to the Economist for your chance to pseudo-exercise your right to vote.


“You Can’t Blink”

You can’t blink.
You have to be wired
In a way of being
So committed to the mission,

The mission that we’re on,
Reform of this country,
And victory in the war,
You can’t blink.

So I didn’t blink.

(To C. Gibson, ABC News, Sept. 11, 2008)


“Befoulers of the Verbiage”

It was an unfair attack on the verbiage
That Senator McCain chose to use,
Because the fundamentals,
As he was having to explain afterwards,
He means our workforce.
He means the ingenuity of the American.
And of course that is strong,
And that is the foundation of our economy.
So that was an unfair attack there,
Again based on verbiage.

(To S. Hannity, Fox News, Sept. 18, 2008)Slate News
