The Wise Twins

The wise Twins Behind you is a pair of twins, wise and humble They conflict and quarrel with each other-no complain With big stomach, big head you sit on them- no complain Without wages they toil moon in moon out- no complain Left behind in every journey made- no complain Pierced with syringes to treat other members- no complain Exiting sewerage created by the others- no complain Washed last or not in the bathrooms- no complain Fleeing from danger and left behind- no complain Caned for foolishness of the carrier- no complain Made to eat dust where seats do not exist- no complain A seat of wisdom and humility indeed are the twins The pair has never tried to be first in society They lament silently, tears rolling inwards Yet wherever they sing hymns to amuse the great The powerful flee with bitterness, insults and regret
