…<\/p>\n
a mule is an elephant with long shiny ears
\nwho never forgets a grudge
\nthus never learns
\nindependence of choice
\nnever earns
\ncitizenship
\nby flaunting God
\nwith human voice
\n“He told me to do it.”
\nwhen caught with hand in US cookie jar,
\n“The Devil made me do it.”<\/p>\n
have i gone too far
\ntween braah and jar?<\/p>\n
heaven help us hooligans
\ndancing in the dark
\nwon’t you come around soon
\no full of the moon
\nour moon
\nreflecting
\nreflective
\none more time again, Charlie
\nhere comes the sun
\nit’s all right<\/p>\n
