That the presidential mansion

Suddenly heard a clatter,
An interminable chatter,
From the sloping, pebbly shore.
"Some intruder" then muttered
"Wants official bread, weii buttered;
Some intolerable bore,
Seeking office. nothing more"
As sat in deep reflection,
Thinking Of the next election,

As never felt before;
Turning. beheld lowly

Up and down the gravel floor;
On my Trilbies proudly standing,
Spoke then In voice commandings

And my power influential.
