Do Tell Mattel Poem by Joe Rosochacki

Do Tell Mattel

Rating: 2.9


Mattel do tell,
About the lead from the painted toys
Made in China
How you begged forgiveness in Beijing
How you pled with office of the Communist party
You said it’s your fault about the designs you were implementing
Not the Chinese government, not Mao Tse-Tung, not the Red Book,
Made in China
Due tell Mattel about also by apologies to the USA and citizens
That were to be possibly contaminated with lead from China,
Lead, the past life of uranium, could render the population sick
China could afford to lose 800 million or so people,
The USA can’t
So Mattel, if you could make Barbie and Ken anatomically correct,
So Fisher-Price if promise that lead doesn’t go with Sesame Chicken Street,
I will forgive you, but my dog may not,
Forgive the Dog food that came out China, are kidding me?
(There’s stories about people that are ground up in the dog food.)
There’s something about greed that sells your soul to the devil,
Mao is rolling his grave, his party is a party with the supreme form capitalism
Made in China
Wal-Mart, the Cumby Auction, are partners in some way with Beijing
America was founded by people that claimed Novus Ordo Seclorum, not having a king
Is too bad, so sad, the dollar has the rule to reign, for the time being,
Lest we remember the toy Trojan Horse,
Made in China,
by officials who designed it,
In Beijing
