In an unprecedented move blending poetry with policy, the Senate unanimously passed the "Rhyme and Reason Act" yesterday, requiring that all future laws be written exclusively in rhyme. Lawmakers claim this bold step will make legislation more memorable and, frankly, much more fun to read. "No more dry texts that make you snore," declared Senator Limerick McVerse, the bill’s chief architect, "Now our laws will dance, prance, and maybe even romance!"

The new mandate has already sparked confusion and creativity across Capitol Hill. Legal experts are scrambling to replace jargon with couplets, while lobbyists are reportedly brushing up on their sonnets. "I've never been so conflicted," said lobbyist Rhonda Rhymewell. "Do I argue against the bill or just drop a sick verse to sway votes?"

Citizens are divided. Some appreciate the lyrical clarity, like 16-year-old aspiring rapper and civics enthusiast Jazzy Jamz, who said, "Finally, laws that flow as good as my beats!" Others worry about enforcement. "If they pass a law like 'Don’t steal a meal,' how do we handle complex issues that don’t fit neat rhymes?" pondered law professor Dr. Syntax Error.

Meanwhile, the Senate’s poet laureate has been appointed to draft the first official rhymed ordinance: "A law to keep streets clean and neat, so everyone can walk on their feet." As the nation braces for an era where legal briefs might come with a beatbox accompaniment, one thing is clear — politics just got a whole lot more poetic. Or as Senator McVerse summarized: "In rhyme we trust, or go to dust!"
