He built a totem pole

That reaches the sky,

Where he sits in judgement

On the villagers and I.

It's built from confusion

And doesn't talk back,

He's attractive and bright

Shame about his sight.

He sees with a critical

Cross-eyed vision,

In his brain in his head

Or in prison?

He spews out words

Like a jigsaw puzzle,

I hope one day

We unravel the muddle. By Ms Gail Priestley
