Critical poetry?

[to kratisto, to krat'eroi]

"Cue the dancing bear..."


It's a parade and all the world's invited.
Put on your mask and file right in.
The songs and jingles that make you giggle.
The smells are here to delight your nose.

Step right up, boys and girls,
And let me show you our first show.
See the sad bear, standing over there?
Let me give him a poke or prod.

Dance for us, you stupid bear.
Get up you mangy, lazy, f*ck.
The people have paid to see you dance.
And by God that's what you will do.

The bear is slow and lumbering.
The dance is sluggish and jittery.
But the people laugh, and they always do,
Because it's not them on stage.

This is our task before us.
To make the lazy worthless old bear dance.
Cause I hate your culture and it's fur.
And I laugh when I see it twirl.
