The World - (correction)
Michelle Lois Foy 1970 (Myrtle Beach, SC)
A dragon with measles,
Rules islands of weasels,
Who answer to vultures and wolves.
While jackals in castles,
With porcupine vassals,
Subjugate all the creatures with hooves.
And porcelain witches,
With straw in their britches,
Vacation in sunny Bombay.
As nobody listens,
To little white pigeons,
Their song has been taken away.
