REPUBLICAN

Oh, baby,
you are
so good
so good
to me

take me
to infinity
in a slow, stately,
crazy
turbo-
charged carriage

and we ignore
the clouds, the crowds,
have
no time for people whatsoever
no need to wave and smile
wave and smile
were we
the celebrated figureheads
of some constitutional monarchy

no we screetch and caterwaul
roar and cry

like king and queen, which
we are but
of our animal kingdom

the power to take and shape
and give
back equally

fair just re-
distribution no royal
could dream of

our sweet template for
complete republican

Oh baby
you are so good to me.
