Introduction

President Bill Clinton was a better student of the OED than anyone gave him credit for. Here's why.

IS

Is Is a now, is Is a then
Does Is precede what comes again?
Is Is a once, is Is a still
Is Is the "what" come after will?
Is Is a late, is Is a now
Is Is a who, is Is a how?
Now Presidents
Can ask with wit
Is what Is seems or
Is Is it?
The Websters and the OED
Treat Is not as what Is could be
But Is today not was before
No Is as memory, as lore
Is ought to be an Is, you see
As Is as Is is meant to be.
