Protest Against Something Wrong
What do cattle do when lack pasture!?
sadness folder...?
And the mutt without cans,
only barks... and how do you turn...?
What does the painter do?
paint pillboxes...!?
And the architect, sit down...!?
What does the poet do sans rhyme
and sans verse!?
Prose, and poet's poetry?
And love, without love, what does it do?
It erases, it dies...!?
Shepherds without sheep,
wolves graze...!?
And the people who don't squeak...
crouch...?
And the politician
that everything promises and
nothing does... just cheating!?
And I that don't learn nothing else
five or six words...
Am I wise!?
Can I wear a suit?
If we accept all this,
we are cool, bananas,
or simply
jerks...!?
