He’s been gone a century or more, has old Mark Twain;
And yet his piercing wit with us is needed once again.
The man who gave us Huck Finn and a jumping frog indeed
Ought to sail into our foibles going at full speed.
He’s now regaling angels in some heavenly saloon
With Mississippi tall tales that would cause a saint to swoon.
Mr. Clemens -- I beseech, come back for just a while
to roast our politicians in your wicked witty style!
