Our double syllables 

Condemn them doubly

By the language and arrogance 

Of our class—the powers 

That have long condemned

Them to ignorance and would

Keep them there. 

                          Oh, that they

Sell their democratic birthright

Has already cursed them

And their numbers,

We say smugly,

And the whole nation

Is kept in stitches 

Or on its knees by the elected

Clowns and thieves

Who keep feeding on their

Desperation and gullibility.

                      Immaculate in our

Suits and gowns, in our 

Barongs of piña and silk 

And university education, 

We condemn them further

In our impeccable English 

In our researches and surveys

As our clans and families

And our whole genealogies

Keep them 

​
