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

***
