To Andrew Johnson, My Favorite Presidential Tailor (December 29)

johnson, johnson from tennesee,
worst president ever? at least top three!
face like a hatchet, but fingers so nimble,
a first-rate president with a thimble.
your time at the top was im-peachy keen;
too bad your qualms with amendment fourteen
and your tenure of office violation
caused unfortunate presidential termination.
I hear you were drunk during your inauguration—
now that deserves some admiration.
oh johnson, johnson, may I propose:
I need someone to mend my clothes.
