Cowboys
Butch and Sundance, our wild western leaders,
who gave you the nod and wink to order
armed bandits over the dusty border
to advance towards the palace bunker?
Well, I thought we'd turned that corner
when you blew the 'this will be the mother
of all wars' option. Let him take cover,
that 'weapons of mass destruction' leader.
Colin had the chance to force surrender
with his merry men and mixed armour.
What stopped the final push, why did they falter?
Holy smoking-big-gun-desert-thunder
Holy cow-boy-and-side-kick-war-blunder.
Now, at least you're showing your true colours
white men talk with fork tongues that steer clear
of oil. Crude. But will the world will be richer
with the death or exile of this leader?
I hoped you'd be taller, stonger, wiser.
Butch and Sundance, you make a wretched picture:
side by side on a white house veranda
matching Stetsons, chaps and holsters,
spinning silvered spurs with your fingers,
beating your inflated chests all winter.
So, cowboys, who will be your gang members?
