he aspires to have
the top job in the land
and he's of a donkey's
kind of brand

this man is well known
for being big on touch
though those he has
touched don't like it much

in past days he played
the role of sidekick
and his boss at that time
was pretty slick

he's of an advanced
age
some will say it hasn't
made him sage

by late next year  he may
acquire the position
but he'll need to be in
peak running condition
