The Unbearable Lightness of Verse 2

Last mango in Paris
last tangerine in Tangier
last farrago in Flanders
the last, the final frontier.

Last rutabaga in Tobago
last almond in Algiers
last marionette in Mar-a-Lago
the last, the final frontier.

Lovely lilt to this piece, Jim. Won’t miss the marionettes. The less amusing side: the last of everything at the end of the world.
