Kennedy

Been thinking a while now about how to comment on his passing. It would be much too easy, of course, to take shots at any flawed man, especially one at the opposite political spectrum of my own.

So, I'll just contribute a new stanza instead to that old song, Abraham, Martin, and John, about other imperfect fallen idols....
Anybody here see that old lion Teddy?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
Thought I saw him accompany a Pride
With Abraham, Martin and John.
