Poetry
Generalisations
By william
24 September 2006
Something which I hope is thought provoking with a philosophical twist. Comments please


Ping pong ping pong
Who else knows the Chins man's song?
slap thigh leather boy
Is this the only German toy?
Yo man burger stand
Does this explain American man?
stiff upper lip, only a blip
Is this what explains the British tight ship?

No! These are generalisations and should  not be tolerated
In a society with twelve inch plates and plenty of meat
and clothes worn neat.

Having said that it is true to say
something unpleasant pervades Britain today
It's a burberry wearing underbelly you say
Let us discuss that another day
