Flying Pig
Bob: "If we could just get Democrats
and Republicans to agree on a tax reform bill,
we could bring the deficit down in no time."
Dave: "Yeah, and pigs can fly!"
One morning we saw Pegasus fly by
Glorious, his white mane contrast the blue sky
Shining, his wings in the rays of the sun
Impressive, flaunting like an Olympian
But Zeus not amused; happy he wasn’t
Grace and humor, he certainly hasn’t
A thunderbolt Zeus shot Pegasus’ way
All of us heard the stallion moan and neigh!
And we looked up and there in the blue sky
Once mighty steed now a pig that can fly!
So hereafter he's been called Pigasus
Lesson for the day - never mess with Zeus!

Robert and Nelson have written "pigs can fly" poems recently. I was impressed to write one too.
