As Gulf storm Isaac northward veers
Toward flood-prone shores of Tampa Bay
And GOP conventioneers,
They might think twice when time to pray
For death to programs deemed a threat
That form our social safety net.
If they believe what Matthew wrote
(And which of them has disagreed?)
At Judgment, Jesus Christ will note
Who fed and clothed Him when in need
And throw the others into flames—
A prince with Democratic aims.
So delegates right after prayer
Should vote to bolster Medicaid
And keep their hands off Medicare
Unless they’re somehow unafraid
Of howling winds outside their door
And lapping sounds beneath their floor.
