【我が道を行け!】詩「ホットケーキ」/ Do your own thing! Poem "Hotcake"

 「え? それ、この前言ってたのと違うよ。。。」  ああ、人というのは如何に当てにならぬものか。  ということを詠みました。 “Huh? That’s different from what you said before…” Ah, how unreliable people are. I put that into verse.

Drink

Drink

poem & reading by POETAQ


Drink too much, and you’ll be Royal.

You’ll make speeches like a hero, even though you’re an idiot.

And you’ll push the privileged button.

It’ll destroy your friends and also yourself.—The weapon!


Drink too much, and you’ll be a princess on the throne.

Feeling like a patron of the salon, treat men like pawns.

Then keep an eye on where they go.

Let flatterers be followed, and traitors be killed off.

  

Drink too much, and you’ll be “Godot.”

You won’t even know if you’re coming or not.

You make no difference between fiction and fact.

3D and AI - what a wonderful world.


Drink too much, and you’re a genius.

Good will turn to evil and evil to good.

Angels turn into devils, and devils turn into angels.

In other words, you’ll go up to hell.


Drank too much!
