Inane
Campaign
Mundane
In Vain
Stuck on an inane campaign trail
Will become a mundane "in vain" tale


The second type of poetry for Mike Huckabee is called "Minute Poetry." Also from Shadowpoetry.com: "The Minute Poem is rhyming verse form consisting of 12 lines of 60 syllables written in strict iambic meter.

NeoCons don't care about poor
They slam the door
They shut their blinds
They close their minds.

Huckabee thinks that they will change
And that is strange
They are brainwashed
Their thoughts are squashed

The Baptist has no chance in hell
So wish him well
Because he'll lose
To dumb-ass views.
