Ozymandias / Hillarymandias

I met a traveller from an antique land Who said: "Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert. Near them on the sand,Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown And wrinkled lip and sneer of cold command Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed. And on the pedestal these words appear:`My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings:Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair! 'Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,The lone and level sands stretch far away.

I met a pollster from an antique land, Who said--"Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand, one in Texas...., one near Canton, Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose brow, and wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The electorate that mocked them, and the press that fed; And on the pedestal, these words appear: My name is Hillarymandias, Look on my resume and campaign fundraising, ye fellow Democrats, and despair! Nothing else remains. Round the decay Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away. Heh.
