A picture
may be worth a 1000 words
But a video deafens
any speech that might be heard
In Normandy
today there is video of Obama working out
Don’t blame
him to hide in the hotel gym as his domestic troubles mount
Some lifting
of weights for a strong, decisive leader image to project,
As at home his
foreign and domestic actions the voters condemn and reject
While his nemesis
Putin nine years his senior is exercising like some god from Greece
Obama is in
a hotel gym searching for the lightest weights not to increase
At least
with good form but on the deltoids looking like a bird with broken wings
Wonder if
replayed on Russian TV how much scorn the work out will bring
Hearken back
to the images of Dukakis as Alfred E. Newman in an M-1 tank
How quickly
his election chances following the photos quickly sank
Obama’s form
may have been rated clearly an A-1
And the light
weights, high reps is how lifting should be done
But when
compares with a shirtless Putin like his red lines he looked weak
Drowning out
again at Normandy what teleprompter rhetoric he might chose to speak
