oh. George,
Dear George.
What the dickens and Tomwalker
Do you mean by knocking out your underrin-
ming
In the confidence, esteem and affection
OF the American people
Like thisf
Don't you know a good thing
When you see III
Ooldarn il, man,
| thought that You and Me
And the Eagle Bird
And the Fourth II OF July
And q. Washington
Had organized a combine,
With headquarters in the Temple Of Fame.
That was as everlasting as the adamantine
hills
And the Palladium of the nations Liberties.
Indeed, | did, George,
Ana when you came back, a Conqueung Hero.
fioated over you and your utterances
With a swelling pride,
Second only to that | felt
When ! shook out my folds over the wrecks
OF CASTLE and Aragon in Manila Bay.
But now
Oh, George!
by George, when | read thai, Interview of yours
| dropped to half mast
With a dull thud,
You've got down to the common level, have
you:
And you've stuck a ycaru for votes
out into the seething current OF
Political ambition:
For votesl
Votes, George,
Common. ordinary votes
That candidates go Town ON their hunkers fol
To him that hath,
Yet may withhold.
Angels and ministers Of grace. defend u.s.
Are you arrived at such a passf
Amt Me and the Fourth
And q. w. and the Bird Of Freedom
Good enough for you:
Isn't a whole nations gratitude sufficient,
Without humiliating yourself
To stand as the ligurehead
OF half of III
What is a iigurehead anyhow, George?
DO you steer a ship - il:
Or hustle her DER the waves,
or fight a battle
Or make a new map
With IL
George. George,
The more ! think Of you
Letting a nasty little insect
Like a presidential bee
! Buzz you ont of the glnrious combine
In which you were an ornamcn
OF more than Oriental sp!cndor
The more am Inclined to hope
Earnestly and pray d~cyoutly
That yuu will get II in the neck
, Ira a way that will make you wish
You had filled a sailors grave
= Among the sun kissed hills
4 OF ~listless. lazy, luxurious Luzon.
George, George,
You make the Temple Of Fame
: Feel like sticking up a r Let" notice
. Over your niche;
= You make your illnstrious namesake
Turn over in his sarcophagus;
You make the Eagle
Drop his wings and refuse to soar
In the useless flight for
Stuff to make a hero of;
You make the glorious Fourth of July
Feel like a thitty-second,
And you make Me
F, Tired.
: Indeed, you do. George.
