From the Desk of the New York Times Poet Laureate
Campbell Robertson boldly sums up the year and drops a Rafael Palmiero steroid reference within spitting distance of Martha Stewart. Great job, even if he was forced to rhyme Katrina and Angelina. An excerpt:
Because - let's change the topic:
To PARIS! Riper than a melon,
Led more Greeks astray than HELEN,
Been around more than MAGELLAN,
We wait for the biopic.
But soft! We speak of Greeks, ch ri,
And hark - ARIANNA's plea:
"Dahling, won't you blahg for me?"
"We will!" we say. (We lied.)
