The Franklin Pierce Song

Frank listened to a silver penguin
He told him what it was all about
He talked of pink fish that wore green hats
He said he heard it from a trout

Then Pierce was elected President
But the penguin's words only brought pain
Frank let Kansas get bloody
And his single term went down the drain

Obscuro Presidents: Monroe and Harrison



I found a couple more pencil drawings of United States Presidents (Monroe and Harrison) in my studio the other day. I think these are more recent than the set I posted not long ago, Washington to JQ Adams.

As I recall I was going to start a series on the obscuro Presidents and started with James Monroe and William Henry Harrison. I have a particular fondness for Franklin Pierce, but I didn't get that far.
