The great nation

Lorenz

Do you know this great nation 

that drinks from impure vines ?

This brave Raymond on his bike

was called the eternal runner-up .

Idol of retired grocers 

who sent poems to the Komandantur 

and spoked of the gentle

  banks of the Seine

to the starry -eyed drudge,

all expenses -paid travel ,

 road to heaven ...

'' Marshal here we are !

You who give us one shower a month ! "

 I seek inspiration

in the mists of the north ,

in Italian coffee ,

and even in the flemish flatlands,

which makes laugh 

the chicken run diversity ! 

A belgian beer is ends 

in sudden death 

from boredom ...

Or sometime a Swiss 

prisoner of the mountains ,

dream of some Alpine ocean...

Germans are tired to be the best...

And even the English 

don't drink tea anymore ...

Here is something 

who comfort the people of cheeses,

smooth as Dali's clock ...

''And notre dame ? ''

You might ask  ?

- '' alas ! Joane of Arc 

will not return mon général ! 

And the emperor in his wheelchair 

fall asleep in front of the screen ! '' 

 At the next bonfire 

it'll make a nice space 

 for gaypride !

It's friday ,super Dupond

 goes to the mosque ...

Glory to our beloved 

president Abdoulaye ! 

 The great nation bids farewell 

to the world that smiles upon it 

like an old habit ...

      It's sharp .
      A great nation that once was and has lost all its splendor !

    • sorenbarrett

      Lorenz this poem speaks gallons of thoughts in dripping words. Distilled wonder in poetic style

      • Lorenz

        Humor distilled in a bad pronk !

      • Ellen Marsell

        A delightful poem. With a gentle smile, you strike at the sacred cows — not destroying them, but giving them a slight nudge so they roll down the hill of history.

        • Lorenz

          A belgian story that won't make our french friends laugh !

        • Spencer Wilhelm

          Wow, beautifullly put. I've been prejudiced against the French for a long time, probably because they've been in steep decline probably since Louis IX...

          • Lorenz

            The country that has won the most pointless victories of the history and lost its major conflicts !
            Recognize a great cultural heritage .
