One of the Monkeys

字號(hào):

by Nicholas Johnson
     I'm one of the monkeys they've got typing
     in a room full of monkeys. It's a play
     Shakespeare wrote back in the old days
     they want us to write again. So we're writing
     a play we never read. They keep inviting
     strangers to watch us and the strangers say:
     "They wrote 'to be or nutti to be'!" They stay
     too long if we write something exciting
     but the bananas flow like wine. We know
     it's a crazy, morbid, ranting play, a stew
     full of murder, love, but with a noble feel.
     Shocked, I see hack monkeys come and monkeys go.
     One keeper killed my father. What should I do?
     I'm watching him. My teeth are as sharp as steel
