Out in the marsh reeds,
a loon cries in pain,
as if having remembered
something better forgotten.

A rather famous Japanese poem
which I once learned in the Japanese.
I was amazed to see a rendition in a
truck stop bathroom once , it went like this.

Down in Savannah,
a barge cries in vain,
as if remembering potatoes
from Kennebunk Maine.

I do feel that most democrats are slightly insane however, with some having departed into full blown pathologic behaviour.
