To trump or not to trump
Andrei Smyk 1967
Some bubbling thoughts
Have crossed my mind
Topiya, Muses, and our kind
Are tumbling in despair
Can you suggest
How we can find
That something
Making US so blind
Yet no one to dare
A pencil hanging on the neck
When the eraser stepped on deck
Has whispered to his ear:
“Oh, Sire! Soon!
Such an event!
My attitude will have a dent
Committed both, of US, I swear!”
“If only you could see my end
It′s easier for you to bend
I need to gasp some air!”
You keep your eyes on crystal balls
When crystals clear, balls shall roll
If you believe you paid your toll
Continuation here ... LOL
