[Newspoetry] material breach

[Editor-Within-Chief]

So Powell delivered a speech
citing Saddam's material breach
we're going to war
which will kill thousands more
which I think should be grounds to impeach

"Material breach" is a term
that makes lovers of plain language squirm
like "smart bombs" and "sorties"
it brings back the forties
during Richard M. Nixon's first term
