1) Elect Me Poet Laurate! by Mike Hignite on June 18, 2007 I'm in:
Oh to be from Michigan tax free
This is what I long to see
To pass a law with common sense
That has not Jenny's new two cents
The voters turned out SBT
Now put back in (the S.O.B.'s)
The new replacement tax will draw
New business here (insert guffaw!)
Let's focus now on what poet's say
Instead of all they take away
And on Michigan say, "Good Night."
Last one out, shut off the light.
