This is a short story about a pair of pathetic pals
named Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer.
Huck wasn't worth a fuck
and Sawyer had all the makings of a dirty lawyer,
but it was a given among the citizenry
that he lacked the wherewithal to pass the test.
Like all worthless individuals looking for an easy out,
they were natural politicians.
There wasn't a position for which they wouldn't run
and each on one occasion even won,
but the results, sadly, didn't measure up to the rhetoric.
Once again they are on the campaign trail
and everyone agrees they are destined to fail.
But that won't stop them.
Though this story is ending,
they are only beginning.
It wouldn't surprise anyone
if they donned their Halloween costumes
in future elections
and masqueraded along the hustings
as Trump Republicans.
