OLE BLUE EYES
Many like Frank Sinatra
Even native Malays in Sumatra
Whether his words are sung or spoken
Everyone knows that voice from Hoboken

A New Jersey-ite, his name Hobo Ken
For singing ballads, he had quite a yen
He would sing like Sinatra
From Vegas to Sumatra
On rails he rode with fellow jobless men

Limerick
Blackened silhouettes fill the skies
Take heed to coming wind and rain.
Listen to the swirling gull cries
No chance of weighing anchor now
My ship’s the schooner Laurie Jane
With a Neptune sprite at the bow.
We’re for Sumatra come first chance
A fine load of tea ours to gain
Waiting to sail is a dog’s dance
Now such heinous blackened skies rain.

THE BOHEMIAN LIFE
Mess of last night’s dishes not washed up
Saucer with a mis-matched cup
Caged kitchen hamster gnaws
Cornflake-box on his roof over paws
Window sill crowded with green plants
Radiator drying washed pants
Toaster doesn’t work well
Teabag jar with curious smell
Delicious dinner, nicest tea
Bread and jam the most tasty
Soft music of Sinatra

Borneo Pygmy Elephants are listed as, endangered
and they were isolated, about 300 thousand years ago
from their cousins, on mainland Asia and Sumatra
and they are known as, the smallest Asian Elephant
They have shrinking forests, with human settlements
and there’s a lot of logging, with a conveyor belt running
There are palm oil plantations, creating a lot of sediment
and a lot of agriculture, destroying their natural environment

An Indonesian flag is a Polish flag upside down.
The capital of Jakarta is a long way from Warsaw town.
On the islands of Sumatra, Java, and Borneo,
sauerkraut and kielbasa is something they don’t know.
Has the average Indonesian ever heard of Thaddeus Kosciusko?
Does anybody know a good Indonesian joke?
People tell Polish jokes until they choke.
There is little to compare between these two countries.
Poland and Indonesia bear very few similarities.
