Confucian Mings! Watch In A Hush … 2710-2k11 Poem by saadat tahir

("Abu shafshufa" is dead and china is dead silent)

As raggedy women line up for rice.
A scraggly head is killed by mice.
Across the seas they huddle in Nice.
Err not crooks! In pursuit of vice.

Earth's afire, from Bush in a rush.
Confucian Mings! Watch in a hush.

Voracious monkeys now divide a pie.
Silent for now, the planes that fly.
Farther down east the Alawites fry.
Tunisians too, at the hustings cry.

Earth's afire, from Bush in a rush.
Confucian Mings! Watch in a hush.

Tharir is simmering and bubbling below.
Funds and greenbacks loose their glow.
The colossus' legacy blow by blow,
and Cyclops' eye festers and flows.

Earth's afire, from Bush in a rush.
Confucian Mings! Watch in a hush.

Swills and thrills unabated gleam.
As wild-west's train looses steam.
Twists abound for a mongering realm,
as ageing wine in futons beam.

Earth's afire, from Bush in a rush.
Confucian Mings! Watch in a hush.
