If Egypt
had an anthem
that
when sung
did just
what it said
This poet would go with
stayin' alive
stayin' alive
walkin'
talkin'
not kicked around
anymore.
It's alright
it's okay
live to see another day
(and lots lots more)
understandin'.
Something about
the New York Times.
Brothers.
Mothers.
Stayin' alive
stayin' alive.
In fact this poet
would vote
for mis-remembered
Bee Gees tunes
to become anthems
the world over.
Maybe it'll work?
