Many on the left are having a hard time getting over the end of the Obama administration.

They miss the good old days of having a classy, elegant, well-spoken president

destroy every American value and institution while allowing the world to go up in flames.

In token of their sadness at Obama's party, the Harvard Review has gathered together 200 poets

to write a Renga for Barack Obama.

Renga is a form of poetic tribute which features two stanzas.

The first stanza is a haiku, which of course is an ancient form of short but extremely annoying poetry

in the tradition of the people who brought you Pearl Harbor.

The haiku is followed by a wacky, which is a couplet named after the editors of the Harvard Review.

The Review's introduction to this poetry collection in tribute to Obama reads, quote,

this is a real quote, we are embarking on a literary project of historic proportions,

one that expresses the profound sense of gratitude we have for a modern political leader

who has measured thoughtful, humane, and literary minded.

Here are a few samples of the poetry and I swear I am not making these up.

What big ears you have, Mr. President and heart big as big can be,

big as the spearmen and sphinx in the drifting sands of time.

Here's another one, old school so cool you solitary writer dreams, midnight floating world,

sing the pal green to me baby, sing baroque sir as you please.

Once you start, it's hard to stop isn't it?

Your weather said cool cigarettes oratory, who dubbed them mom jeans.

The moon doesn't care, I know your light glows from the inside.

Okay I guess it was hard to get any poets with talent to participate in an exercise like this.
