From: "Jim Devine" 

A poem written by Obama in 1981 was discovered and republished:

Under water grottos, caverns
Filled with apes
That eat figs
Stepping on the figs
That the apes
Eat, they crunch
The apes howl, bare
Their fangs, dance,
Tumble in the
Rushing water
Musty, wet pelts
Glistening in the blue.

[from HARPER'S WEEKLY]

CB: Sounds like an  anthropological poet, too. 

I don't know if I dare say it, since, any compliments he gets get
mocked as hero worship, but, if you read his biography, he's a pretty
good prose writer , too.
