The Oh So Prolific One: Leon Freilich, Verse Responder

KEEPING THE BLOOM IN THE BURG

Here was a Caesar! When comes such another?
–Marc Antony

The city’s grateful business tycoons
Demand another such–
A second Bloomberg who can be
Counted on in a clutch.

Our mayor’s always shown himself
Completely at his ease
In dealing with the real estate
Moguls’ many pleas.

But why another? Michael Bloomberg’s
The perfect corporate investor–
Let’s crown him New York’s Mayor for Life
(With Donald Trump court jester).
