Let’s give the squirrel a chance to
rule us
He asked the land to snuff out
The dawning flame of our fate;

Let’s give the hyena a chance to rule
us!
He held the communal war-horn
yesterday
Let’s give the tortoise rule us
And blasted out ear-splitting elegies;
He has been our blood enemy.
Asking us to fashion new life from
stones;

Let’s give doomsters their golden
chance
To rule us with treacherous wisdom…
