Love Letters

Post by indar » Sun May 20, 2018 10:23 am

Dear Congressman Adam Schiff,

I don't live in your district:
you don't know me
but I'm writing to say
you have a secret admirer--

me--

I'm as surprised as you are:
I usually go for the bad-boy types,
not a guy who looks like
a Sunday school teacher;
soft spoken; thinning hair;
and your adorable 
round, rosy cheeks.

I love the way you always
smile a little even though you must 
be frustrated trying to figure out
what's going on there
in Washington DC.

I tell all my friends how hard you work.
I wish I could do more to help
but know I am doing my best
to stand by you no matter what.

Sincerely yours,

I don't dare sign my name 
because I am afraid I might get into trouble
with our common enemy.

Dear Adam,

Its me again, I'm writing to say
I'm breaking up with you. I'm so sorry.
Michael Avenatti has stolen my heart.
He really knows how to take the bull 
by the horns. And that chiseled jaw line--
what can I say? He is a race car driver.
Fearless. Much more my type. Please know
I still wish you all the best.

Goodbye.

Ha!  Very very entertaining.

For the last six months Schiff has been my pick for VP.

Expressive writing, Indar.

Indeed Tracy,

I can't speak for that fickle Narrator in the poem---I still love Adam Schiff. VP eh? And for pres?
