A Man Of High Class

Me, a man of royalty
I have facial hair
I have fur
I have a pretty plaid cape
Having gold pieces is great
I have peasants
Pointing my finger
To give directions
They say “yes sir”
My people are starving like baby chickens
I am not
My feasts are grand
Wild pigs with an apple in the mouth
Fruit piled high like the great pyramids
My belly is full
After supper
I retire for the evening
My bed is grand
My pillows are soft
And I fall asleep fast

- Burns Duncan
