PLASTIC ANIMALS


The modern day idols and animal gods
Embrace higher platforms in the sky
Than the statues of the gods of the ancients.

And we scream for them to be seen
And we cry if they aren't covering the pages.

Than the man who saved
An island of a million drowning men!

If he/she is not a prime example of the right way,
Has nothing to say,
Or simply has the money to buy
A rotating banner. — Suzy Kassem
