Wearily, drearily
Faithful constituents
Ask their reps “where are you
Drawing the line?”
Clearly unbothered by
“Unconstitutional”,
Reps sip their coffee and say
“This is fine”.
Someone (if you know who, I would be overjoyed to cite) reminded me today that impeachment would involve a whole lot of Republicans crossing the line. And that is something they just don’t do in the numbers needed (19, I think? Not gonna happen). And with each new atrocity that doesn’t cross the line, the line moves. It’s the Milgram experiment, with each unthinkable, once thought, now defended and normalized.
Man, I would love to be writing stupid verses about stupid arguments about stupid gods.

See that window pane?
So far now, barely a line…
It’s called Overton.

Nice to see a double dactyl, you don’t get a lot of those in the wild.

You’d be surprised by what you see in the wild around here!
