Address to Congress, 2/24/09, in fourteen stanzas
1.
You don't need numbers
To see the truth
Of this
Recession's
Azimuth:
Pointingdown
2.
The answers lie
Within our reach
With those who make
And those
who teach:
Imagipreneurs
3.
It's time we come
To recognize
That short-term
Thinking
Isn't wise:
Agendaset
4.
I know the skeptics
Don't believe
But I've got
Nothing
Up my sleeve:
It'sontheweb
5.
We'll break the cycle
Re-start the credit
We'll do it
Just the way
I said it:
Accountable
6.
The Wall Street traders
Start to sing
A sad song
When they see
The strings:
Notaboutthebanks
7.
We must acknowledge
Bigger facts;
We can't let
Anger guide
Our acts:
Solvetheproblem
8.
History teaches
That the nation
Responds
To crisis
With transformation:
Conditionate
9.
We're oil addicts
To get off it
Green energy
Must turn
A profit:
Reimagine
10.
Though it might
Be tempting fate
Health care
Reform
Cannot wait:
Consciencecause
11.
For schools to offer
Better courses
They need more
Than a few
Resources:
Togethernow
12.
In the long run
We'll have to get
Our children's
Children
Out of debt:
Inheriburden
13.
I think about
Leonard Abess
Ty’Sheoma Bethea
Greensburg
Kansas:
Noquitterswe
14.
We may not always
Have agreed
But want
Our country
To succeed:
Godblessetc.
