A poem by Ambrose Bierce

Detected

________________________________________________
Title:     Detected
Author: Ambrose Bierce [More Titles by Bierce]

In Congress once great Mowther shone,
Debating weighty matters;
Now into an asylum thrown,
He vacuously chatters.

If in that legislative hall
His wisdom still he 'd vented,
It never had been known at all
That Mowther was demented.







[The end]
