Another Boat

ANOTHER BOAT

The Emperor bombed another boat today.

            It simply got in the way.

He said it was filled with very bad boys

            And their very bad toys.

                                    ********** 

We don't know if that was the case,

            Nor the exact time, nor the place.

But, as was his practice in the past,

            He showed us a picture of the blast.

                        **********

And he told us we had to be very careful,

            We had to be very fearful.

If we refused to clap and cry, "Hurray!"

            We could end the very same way.
