RUDE, CRUDE

...by Faruk Sarkinfada

Declared wanted!
For my head
A high price was granted
For the seed I neither planted
Nor had I harvested


Some men were crude and rude
By the crude games they play
By the rude words they say
I was a victim

Of the game I don’t play
Of the words I don’t say
True men have excelled
I was hunted
By the game some men play
By the words they say
I was wanted

Alas! My head was saved
By the games I play
By the words I say
But a victim
Of the rude and the crude
