An ass and a fox a SALERIAN POEM and a painting

49. An Ass And A Fox

On an empty bus

Going nowhere

Idling engine

A bus passes by

Then a lion

And two donkeys

Arguing about

Hard labor

Not enough food

Bad bosses

Inflation

Rude young asses

Dogs barking too much

“Hey driver

Can we go already”

“Yes sir “the driver says

“You're the boss

Tell me where to go”

“I’d love to see the White House

Or Lincoln Memorial”

“Give me a bigger challenge “the driver says

“Take me to Heaven” I say

“The real one or the one man made?”

“You decide”

“The real one is easy

 All I have to do is to kill you

The one here

Perhaps difficult

You need a passport

And  you have none

 For you're an ass

And this is a fox jungle”
