The Czar---the poem
(Ed. note. I found this little poem on a crumpled piece of paper at a local Manpower office in a nearby city. I have faithfully reproduced it without editing.)

It would be
great
to be
bop
like sha na na

To dance on
lighted stage
to
screaming
fans and toss
t-shirts... and
whatever

It would be
great
to be great
not just near
let's make it clear
but yes
afar

To strut
proud and tall
near and.....
afar
to be a czar
to rule
if not a
town
at least a
bar
