>> I wrote a lot of ‘Adventures of Obama’ during the times now past. Ogden Nash, who wrote comic poetry in the 1920s, wrote ‘Adventures of Isabel,’ a 40 line poem in rhyming couplets. I took my poetic license and wrote a series of the Adventures of Obama in 10 line segments at a time. Each stanza tells the of encountering seemingly impossible odds and turning them into victory in unexpected ways. The original Isabel was a little girl who met a ravenous bear, an ugly witch, a one-eyed giant, and a despairing doctor and used her “magic” powers to win out in the end. I am continuing to use my poetic license with a nod to Ogden Nash in the Adventures of Joe Biden.
