Sense Sonnet - Steamer

Sheriff U.S.A.

Syria is killing its own.
Should Sheriff U.S.A. jump in?
In lots of "I told you so," tone,
Armchair pundits do talk their spin.
Most of that talk is huff and puff,
Cuz Sheriff U.S.A. is no
Longer the big bully enough
To force its way. The world knows so.
China and Russia and Iran
Call the shots in the Middle East.
Israel surely needs a B plan,
Since faith in the U.S.A. has ceased.

Sheriff U.S.A. too soon will
Be dead and buried in Boot Hill.
