Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

They'Re Coming To Take Us Away

~ Just thinkin' tonight ~

They're coming to take us away
  Ha, ha, ho, ho, tee, hee
The Woke Ones; ha, ha, hee, hee
  They're coming for you and me

Fluid sexual preferences, ho, ho
  Today I'm straight; tonight, a homo
My gender I change like underwear, ha, ha
  I can be Yoko Ono or Yo Yo Ma

LGBTQ is the way to be, tee hee
  No more being heterosexual, you see
'Cos that would make you reactionary
  a fate worse than being white, hee, hee

And as for race, you're in first place
  if you're a minority -- though only black
or brown, so you'd better frown if
  you're Korean or Chinese, tee, hee

Oh, they're coming to take us away
  Ha, ha, ho, ho, hee, hee
The Woke Ones are coming for you and me
  Riding Mindless Waves of Identity

Things use to be so simple and now they done gone and messed everything all up. (DANG) Good write Gershon. God Bless, JB Gershon Wolf January 5, 2021 at 6:34 PM Ha, ha: Za, ze -- He or She?
