Caring
To be sung with Louis Armstrong to the tune
"Do You Know What It Means To Miss New Orleans?"
(…and miss it both night and day.)

Can you guess what it means
   to be his next New Orleans,
   knowing who'll be put in charge
Of what wasn't destroyed
   as Bush again toyed
   with letting a conflict enlarge?

For bombed-out Lebanese,
   instead of trailers, tepees,
   when and if reconstruction begins,
Plus Bushie flyovers
   cheering Chertoff makeovers
   supervised by the Bush Bobbsey Twins.

He's held up talk of ceasefire
   as more ka-booms display his flair
For dreams that Hezbollah would soon
   disappear into thin air.

Can you guess what it means
   to be his next New Orleans,
   knowing how well he'll prepare?
Like a Con Ed in Queens
   touting outdoor latrines,
   hoping digging makes some think they care.
