In the poem below, each line, except for those indented, is an anagram of a U.S. President鈥檚 name. Sometimes it鈥檚 the full name (First, Middle, Last), sometimes it鈥檚 first, last, and middle initial, and sometimes it鈥檚 just first and last name, depending on how the president is usually referenced.
Gathering egos own,
revolted heroes, too,
but
ah, martyrs run
and
jeer amid flags
flown. 鈥淔inancier Slime!鈥 Jolt,
scare her. Truth!
Infernal picker
renames mojo
bugger! Whose
arranged loan
bans snide Johnny Loon?
Darn, no rich mix
Adman Josh?
Added woes hither wiving.
Josh foments fear,
yet
Jack draws none,
John draws none.
While the
grayness lusts
throb over here
and the
world wino woos
folk loves narrated online,
for the
milder moral fill.
