Palin Not A Maverick But A Judas Goat Poem by O Anna Niemus

Palin Not A Maverick But A Judas Goat

Rating: 5.0


Mavericks are calves and bulls
who try to escape from the branding iron, the castration knife,
the barbed wire on the fence, the filthy water in the feedlot,
the thirst and bruising of the transport truck, the final
shrieks of the slaughterhouse

Palin's Not a Maverick but a Judas Goat
***
(Judas goat: a goat leading other animals to slaughter)

Excellant piece. Change the word McCain to make it a lasting poem.Make it symbolic.
