Notable No-Shows….Of The Paris Demonstration - 11 January 2015 Poem by James B. Earley

Missing the Event's..roll call
…Along with Barack Hussein…
Esteemed colleagues..Boehner
..McConnell….and John McCain

Pundits O'Reilly…Gretchen…Hannity
…..Sharing Limbaugh's kindred views…
Garnered….not from physical presence
..But from amongst the daily News

Barry…...within the Oval Office
…Lingering thoughts of Dallas
Likewise the Pope in his Vatican Suite
The Queen secure in her Palace

….Brilliantly absent...both it seems
As indeed were…John McCain
Mitch McConnell…his sidekick Boehner
….And perceptively….Barack Hussein
