Man from the Congo
cannot have it all
but has enough to do the job well
Karens from the trailers
cannot have it all
but should have enough sense
not to put the blame on me
bees flies for pollen
but the wasps are always buzzing
never at peace with the world
a sting in the tail
but not much else where it matters
and in the fields
of men and mice
Karens swats wasps
and wants mahogany furniture
to lounge on in their sand castles
and forked tongues
quibble amongst themselves
installing distractions
and magic roundabouts
and the man from the Congo
says I do not have pikkins
but those that come when I leave
will one day own our world
the signs begins with me
I give it large
