Michele: A Reprise

Calvin Trillin

September 15, 2011

(With yet another apology to the Beatles)   Michele, our belle, Things of late have truly failed to gel For Michele.   Michele, our belle, They’re no longer buying what you sell. Poor Michele.   Your numbers have gone in the toilet. They say you peaked too soon. And talking like a loon Could not have helped a lot, although Rick Perry does, too.   Michele, our belle, Pundits now are bidding you farewell— “Bye, Michele.”
