The picture and the poem are hilarious. Love the double meaning of behind 'fans' and 'lying'. Of course, lying is certainly appropriate for the president. Sigh.

Kudos!! This is a sleeper...you don't realize how really good it is until the second read. Clever play on words is always appealing - dog is aways a winner. I will vote for the pup over the scoundrel any day.

this is bonkers. The picture makes it extremely hard to read this as anything other than comically which it indeed feels to be. Funny though also because without the picture it could be read in quite a serious fashion.

It may appear somewhat rough to think, but truth is truth, a doggy while taking rest lying under fans, it is natural that the dogs may acquire bigger fans than the president; well said, well done. Publish works that's readable every day and tomorrows -- DR ALCREATOR

Very current and very true poem.. enjoyable picture to accompany you poem. Catchy title, I could see where it may be a bit ruff for some to take considering one political views. I enjoyed this.

Wonderful picture and even better poem - the best in impressionable presentation contest - I never heard of this - but still this seems like a winner and very cute and funny. Good luck in your contest.

Slightly odd contest to have on a writing site, where the presentation has more importance than the words! However, I will let the voters worry about that and just comment on your words as they relate to the picture you have found. You manage a great pun as well as making a strong political comment, so well done.

PS Is the word in the title perhaps supposed to be 'Ruff' another pun?
