Orange Turd

 Orange Turd is a bilingual limerick by Gabriel Rosenstock against the background of the hush-money trial



'Cac Oráiste!' a chan éinín ar ghéag
'Cac Oráiste!' Bhfuil fhios agat canathaobh?
             Ag tagairt a bhí an t-éan
             Don Iar-Uachtarán bréan
'Agus canfaidh mé Cac Oráiste go héag.'     

                         ~
I heard it from a wee little bird
Who tweeted, 'Turd! Turd! Orange Turd!'
      Who can say she was wrong
      To go on with her song?
'Orange Turd!' Oh, the whole thing's absurd . . .
