COMRADES, by EVELYN BYRNES First Line: A man with a jaw Last Line: To the man with a chin. | |||
A man with a jaw And a man with a chin Were talking things over, as comrades, one day, Said the man with a jaw To the man with a chin, "We must teach the world to respect and obey." Said the man with a chin To the man with a jaw, "We need a few allies with courage to sin." "We travel the Mediterranean way." Said the man with a jaw To the man with a chin. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...FRAGMENTS WRITTEN WHILE TRAVELING...A MIDWESTERN HEAT WAVE by JAMES GALVIN HOW MY HEART SINKS by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON SPOON RIVER ANTHOLOGY: J.
