Augie The Ace ... A Slanguistic Poem For This Exact Date

______________________________________________________________________________________________

Augie the Ace
you are now in place
occupying the space
that Julie did yield
 she sure did
play the field
with lots of kicks 
and the Olympics
 
Foxy card tricks
condemning Biles
with daily piles
of manure
and Republican rants
about Corona variants
plus Hollywood plants
in the DC police
 
Honor your lease
or vacate your res
said the Prez
tenants gotta do
what he sez
 
I need a Pez
or some other candy
to keep life dandy
and on the go
then I tune in HBO
 
What do you know:
there's now a 4-eyed Bill
to provide
laugh and thrill
to all things liberal
so give Maher a pass
 
Cuz we are through
the looking glass
 
Enough said
for I have
emptied my head
 
Outside this vernacular spray
August 1 is just another day
***
