The Funk Of A Coup D'état Poem by Hebert Logerie

This is not a good thing for our democracy
A coup d'état by the left or the right wings
Should not be acceptable. This is sheer hypocrisy
What's happening?A big hand is pulling the strings
In Venezuela. Somebody wants the oil cache
A few giants are hiding next to the huge garbage tray
Be careful! The situation is volatile and dangerous
They woke up the puppets
While trying to strangle the poets
This mess is nauseating, disgraceful and ludicrous
One can smell the stench of a coup d'état
The Russians and the Chinese are called
They are the proven experts on elections
Wake up people! Yell, so the people won't be mauled
By the big cats, the bears and the giant eagles
Be attentive and watch for the seagulls
The atmosphere is tense. Bothe parties are fighting
Let Venezuela be free, independent and foreign
Stop inferring in the internal affairs of a starving
Country. Let the people exhale. Venezuela is sovereign
Leave Venezuela alone. Stop the boycott and the embargo
Big hands are about to cause more chaos, confusion and a total fiasco
In South America. The gringos will pass out smoking this maduro.
