Does anyone else here read The Nation? Calvin Trillin has been "Deadline Poet" there for years. He’s not exactly a poet, but he can be very funny about politicos. And his "verse" has been collected in several books. For inspiration one might read: "Obliviously On He Sails: The Bush Administration in Rhyme." There are some samples on Amazon.

He's also written some ditties on Sarah Palin! (Wish I could.)
