Dispatches for the Colonial Office

                       The Supreme Warfighter in His Play Clothes


          The Congress shall have the Power…To declare War,
          grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make
          Rules for Captures on Land and Water…

                          -The Constitution, Article I, Section 8


He took a few minutes from his game of golf
To order an unsanctioned bombing run
Wearing a ballcap autographed by himself
and from himself and to himself, amen

He wore a golly-gee jet-pilot headset
Maybe someone gave him a button to push
With authentic boom-boom lights and sounds
He’s the world’s champion bomber pilot! Wheeee!

What our Congress was doing, we cannot tell
While Our Supreme Warfighter blew the Constitution
         All to (Score!)
