For Rafael (Ted Cruz):

I do not like you, Rafael
I wish you would go straight to hell
And, no one with a sense of smell
Is buying what you have to sell!

You're quite adept at shovelling shit
In fact, you seem at home in it
And, that is why we see you sit
Amongst known assholes quite a bit.

So, please don't bother trying to say
You don't know that to earn your pay
You're obligated every day
To help the wealthy have their way.

I know that it's been said before
But, let me say it one time more:
I think you should be shown the door.
The simple reason: you're a whore.

though it seems suppressed these days and material might be thin. Reportedly people are fleeing religion, gotten a bad name somehow, and maybe times just aren't right for a dominionist opportunist to appear... Waiting for the coming together of both masters for one goal?

(I'm kind of a meter nazi when reading parody songs, poems, etc; and you absolutely nailed it!)

I do need to come with a bridge though.

Well done, I think Shakespeare would applaud.
