Dick Cheney’s got a heart, and it is new,
Or new enough for someone very old.
The puns are easy – “Cheney’s heart is cold,
And thus it didn’t work;” or “when he’s through,
He’ll eat the other heart,” and so it goes.
I must confess I’ve never been a fan.
I still admire any woman, man,
Or child who, when death is certain, chose
To give away the organ giving life.
So Cheney, fare thee well, though I confess
I wish you hadn’t given us the mess
Of bases in the Gulf, Iraqi strife,
Or Noriega, Libby, or the rest,
Whene’er you put your power to the test.
