Benjamin the Ass

"Benjamin was the oldest animal on the farm, and the worst tempered. He seldom talked, and when he did, it was usually to make some cynical remark—for instance, he would say that God had given him a tail to keep the flies off, but that he would sooner have had no tail and no flies." - Animal Farm

"Let not your sorrows die, though I am dead."

For nearly two fortnights MJ's been deceased,
And yet in the news has a new life been leased.
His doc charged: manslaughter.
And what of his daughter?
'Twas too much to hope that he could rest in peace.

Michael Jackson and Race

We've now seen the end of Michael Joe Jackson,
Was key to MTV's getting black acts on.
Yet with all the respect paid
One could almost forget he'd
Appalled when he changed to an Anglo Saxon.
