The ducks enjoy the flood
But the rats do not
So they crawl out of holes
And caves
To find higher ground
dryer ground
Places of visibility,rescue
And self preservation
But water runs quickly
off the back of each duck
Yet it soaks the rodent
thoroughly
From bottom up
In this stagnation
Where the needy
Must run through
wet drawers for
some attention
Whilst the ducks
spread their wings
and fly to higher ground
Even stretch their legs
To sprint to dryer ground
And now all can recall
This one thing,
for sure
Though the ducks duck
The Ducks
Were in the waters
all along

PRESSURE
The pressure of fortune
Comes crashing down
In the demands
Of the entitled
The expectations
Of the misled
And the audacity of
The deserving
The pressure of fortune
Comes crashing down
from the pinnacles of power
The indisputable pen
The rights of the oppressor
The strength of the supporters
And distributive mentalities
Which justify impartialities

PRESIÓN
La presión de la fortuna
Viene estrellarse
En las demandas
De los titulados
Las expectativas
De los engañados
Y la audacia del
merecedor
La presión de la fortuna
Viene estrellarse desde
Los pináculos del poder
el bolígrafo indisputable
Los derechos del opresor
La fuerza de los seguidores
Y mentalidades distributivas
Lo cual justifican
imparcialidades
