Ode to Pat Buchanan

Jusyt another goofy little song I decided to write. In a sudden burst of inspiration/bordem, this song was created, though punctuation was not included, so that may need help.

---------------------------------------

I browsed the Young Writer’s Forum,
I looked at a poll or two.
When suddenly I felt dumb,
‘Cause on every poll, I saw you.

Oh Patrick Buchanan,
Who are you?

Nobody knows who you are,
But everyone’s heard of your name.
People near, and people far,
It’s forever embedded in our brains.

I asked around to see who you were,
But the people I asked didn’t know.
So I Googled you just to be sure,
Because I knew that that wouldn’t be slow.

I clicked on the link that went to your site,
Went to “Biography” and I read,
But what it said gave me such a fright,
You’re a journalist and politician who’s color is red.

Oh Patrick Buchanan,
“The truth hurts” is painfully true.
Turns out you’re a conservative Republican.
Oh what can I do?

Nobody knows who you are,
But everyone’s heard of your name.
People near, and people far,
It’s forever embedded in our brains.

Hi there,

I read this, because the title intrigued me and I was definitely not disappointed. While you frequently rhyme it always goes with the flow and not in one place you over rhyme. The flow was sometimes a little off, but that's okay, since this isn't meant to be a work of perfection, but a humorous ode to Pat.

Very original, very well executed. Someone should advertise this a little bit ^_^

Keep writing things like this!

All the best,
~Kalliope

'Kay Em, I'm laughing way too hard to give this a proper review. So, I'll be back later when I stop laughing to actually review this! So, for now, gold star for you! And, Pat Buchanan's a Republican?!?! So, like 23% of the people on YWS are Republicans? But, these people are supposed to be smart, and Republicans are icky! How dare they make him a choice on that poll thingie. Anywayz, great job on this! It was sheer awesomeness, as twin said. :D
