vote for the sausage

 

put best snout forward

all do today

any body does

 

dip in the trough

in the polls

and I follow

the sausage through donkey do

 

you must know that the animal in it

is not the voting kind

a skin like rubber

and a condom tie

there’s sausage coming after us

impartial, so benign

 

one hand

and from the lips

sauce drips

 

I follow that sausage wherever it goes

I love to get in a queue

 

they say – why bother?

each sausage the same

all this charisma catching

 

if I cast a shadow

it’s after all accident

and who’ll correct my bite?

 

some like ice cream with their sausage

some like a tickle too

 

little boys and saucy

a string of them

as pearls

 

sausage was a cow once 

moo!

you ask of my fond loyalties?

I serve the sausage, silly

I sizzle at the thought

 

we have a little history

sausage and me

we came together

across the sea

and you may say salt biscuit

it’s from the same machine

kachink

flatchat 

and is as does 

 

I lie with the sausage

all tucked up proverbial

and straight in bed we do

come hide this thing

acknowledged mine

sausage right or wrong

 

stands up for his country

for hers

a matter of good breeding

 

name it after an old abstraction

no one can understand

 

on just such an occasion

all sausage for a spin

else burnt, else raw

 

some say it’s self interest

I call the common good

 

a little sunshine

in our bleak

magpie makes off with

 

vote for the sausage?

how can you ask me?

of course I must

I do
