Lavish sauce béarnaise on my pancakes please
I said this diplomatically with ease.
I will readily pay all additional fees.
A corpulent chef ran out and yelled “Jeez!”

Will ruin my food, he coughed with a wheeze.

My identical face in a walking crowd
My instincts are not that loud

Glasnost, unmuted voice, long overdue 
Once Berlin Walls and Iron Curtains fell,

Achieved social democracy at last,
Cold war, diplomatically, put to rest.
Hard wired propaganda of the past -
Exculpated lies of Wicked Wild West.
Victorious legacy earned at his best.
