POEM: REVOLUTION AT HOME

We are the children,
And this is our final decision,
Whoever is the breadwinner,
Will be worthy of the father's position.

And this is for you liquor man,
You better fulfill your responsibilities,
You don't need to be Superman,
For being a good father,
Is a matter of formalities.

We need to be given education,
For that's our right and your duty as well:
We don't need your daily agitation,
For freedom we'll fight, the truth we'll tell.

If you'll resist then,
We'll wage a revolution,
A coup d' ètat and the things like that...
We are so tired of your political pollution,
Just keep in mind Mister Autocrat.

We need a pleasant accommodation,
And we need a place to call home...
We don't need your drunken accusation,
So take your time and brainstorm.
