decided to stage a coup
so he gathered a mob

Beautiful bushes, each has her own hue.
They’re all in my yard.
Inspire this bard.

To find a chocolate Gateaux

With a swift “bloodless coup”
Convinced that nobody would notice

A Dollar Will Do
You can not win if you do not play.
Is what the gambler will always say.
One in a million.
A dollar will do.
