Poison Letters

Searching the home of an Elvis impersonator  for evidence of poison. (Photo/news.yahoo.com)
I may wield a poison pen but, ricin in the mail?
Two attempts to kill someone...  Assassination fail
President Obama, Roger Wicker... D.C.'s tense.
Sending ricin through the mail's a capital offense.

Terrorism's cowardly, but poison's even worse
(Near as bad as politics expressed in lousy verse)
FBI released the man whose name was on the note;
Someone framed the guy to be a sacrificial goat.

Seems things come in clusters: Boston, Canada - now, this. 
So far we have caught the letters; pray that we don't miss.
'though, from front-row seats inside a Boston neighborhood,
Let me reassure you all - the FBI is good.
