Stateside: Poem for the National Party
Reaction to NZ Herald report of Don Brash's comments
Poem for the National Party
I've got a Chinese wife/
I've got a big
flash house/
I've got a boat/
I've got a fondue
set
I've got a Chinese wife/
I've got the latest
Merc/
I've got flatscreen TV/
I've got a patio
set
I've got a Chinese wife/
I've got a canteen of
cutlery/
I've got a Queen Anne chair/
I've got a
Hotere
I've got a Chinese wife/
I've got a hole in my
head if I think that speaking of people as if they were
chattels is acceptable coming from the leader of a political
party in the 21st century/
Is acceptable coming from
anyone
