A Dyspeptic's Guide To Contemporary American Politics (In Verse)

Fifteen Feet Beneath Manhattan by Michael Silverstein

"Nowadays, you can't turn on the TV without some talking head telling you about the economy. Yet, in a world overrun by 'analysts,' only one man has the guts, the brains, and, quite frankly, the poetry to put it all in perspective.That man is Michael Silverstein... Silverstein is a true intellectual." — Gersh Kuntzman, The New York Post
"Few people have found much to laugh about in the stock market this year. Michael Silverstein is the exception. The Bard of the Bourse can find humor in losing money, globalization and stock options." — USA Today

About Silverstein's Verse

 

Condi Goes Forth
To Save Lebanon

To the Mid-East, she boldly goes,
Our diplomat-in chief;
A needed cure she thinks she knows,
For the tortured country’s grief.

And who can doubt she’ll make the place
Much safer, richer, freer;
Just check her record with Iraq,
Iran and North Korea.
