The Idiossey by Iowahawk

The Not-Really-That-Epic Poem of Obamacles
(with Apologies to Homer)

Book the First: A question for the Muse

Speak to me, O Muse, of this resourceful man
who strides so boldly upon the golden shrine at Invescos,
Between Ionic plywood columns, to the kleig light altar.
Fair Obamacles, favored of the gods, ascends to Olympus
Amidst lusty tributes and the strumming lyres of Media;
Their mounted skyboxes echo with the singing of his name
While Olbermos and Mattheus in their greasy togas wrassle
For first honor of basking in their hero's reflected glory.

-- An excerpt of this soaring epic, this paragon of poesy by the immortaliowahawk:

Some of Iowahawk's finest work. Epic.

Amen.

Possibly the funniest, spot-on piece that IowaHawk has ever written.

And that's saying something...
