No one ever erected
A statue to a critic

Slaveholder statues
Now are paralytic

Christopher Columbus
A genocidal sadist

Donald J. Trump
An ignoramus hatist

The old ways are dying
Can't be resurrected

The Republicans keep lying
Cannot be protected

Queequeg was a sailor
Came from Polynesia

Why did Shakespeare write?
He said it was to please ya

Intellligence is pleaure
Words in mystic motion

First time I ever kissed her
Near the moonlight ocean

I am tired and I'm lonely
But solitude is truthful

Gather all ye rosebuds
Today's truth is for the youthful

Tomorrow's truth is waiting
I wonder who will know it?

I've tried to plant my seeds, sir
Dear reader, I will show it

Hidden truths are deepest
For centuries they keep waiting

Even scholars cannot find them
When they are debating

Hidden in plain sight so
For the true blue seeker

Just like honest Jonas
And honest true Tim Meeker
