Whatever happened
..To Chairman Gowdy's
'Select Committee'
….Pursuing Benghazi

Boehner and company
Strategically foreseeing
Hillary as threatening
Unanimously agreeing

To Chairman Gowdy's
….Select Committee
Hobgoblins seeking
…Conservative pity

..Then sudden silence
From plight Benghazi's
'Select Committee'
And Chairman..Gowdy

Circumstance altered
..Hobgoblin's course
Desperation astride
…Another dead horse

At issue the soldier
Having deserted his post
..Congress…a reflection
Of the soldier's ghost

Desertion..to the soldier
Seemed the rational course
When there's nothing to ride
...But another dead horse
*
*
...The route perhaps
Of Chairman Gowdy's
…'Select Committee'
And Boehner's Benghazi
