Biden Jumps the Gun

Barack Obama’s getting really mad
(Perhaps, at any rate) that Biden, true
To Biden form, has made a verbal coup
And spoken far too much, as if he had
Authority to make Obama heel,
And follow in his shadow.  This is great;
It’s rare, and very rare, when, as of late,
Our politics are funny.  Thus he’ll reel
His second-in-commanding in, and then
Himself re-state the very same opinion,
As if he weren’t the former, but a minion
Rehashing all the thoughts of other men
And making them his own.  God bless him, Biden,
The quicker Zeus, before Barack’s Poseidon.
