"Monkey should you be an ass / Long-eared monkeys shall not pass / Monkey see and monkey do / Not let ego make an ass of you"

Transcendental Sonnet #1285:

Papa Lance's Poetry Class

 

"Be kind to one another"

 

Leave your e-g-o at the door

Or else see it go through the floor

 

The better they are the kinder they are

The bigger they think they are the more small

Leave it outside in a mayonnaise jar

 

Pride seems to precede a precipitous fall

Those who are in need are most generous of all

 

Climb out of that box into paradox!

Into humanity into reality

Come and be free as poet and person with me

 

Monkey should you be an ass

Long-eared monkeys shall not pass

Monkey see and monkey do

Not let ego make an ass of you

 

+Papa Lance
