Sense Sonnet - Tickler

Bo and the Peace Prize

In the Oval Office, I heard
The Prez talking about Nobel
On the phone and he said, "Absurd!"
"I won the Peace Prize - go to hell."
"I'm not giving it to Putin."
"So what if he merits it more?"
"Peace is what I'm always tootin'."
"I'm stuck with hawks who just want war."
"If Putin makes the peace for real,"
"I'll take credit out of thin air,"
"And make it sound good - no big deal."
"I'm keeping the Peace Prize - so there."

As the Prez hung up on Oslo,
He threw the Peace Prize, "Go fetch, Bo."
