Vince Foster’s Last Exit

How did Vince leave the White House,

As they’d have it, immersed in gloom,

And when did he leave that compound,

And even more crucial: with whom?

We know he ended up dead on a berm

On the backside of Fort Marcy Park,

But the White House surveillance cameras

Are the canines that didn’t bark.
