willie told the gits a tale of his genes
about a donkey legend named Uncle Feen
feen was a humble jackass of no note
but when times got tough he busted the scene
ii
feen flew deep into the darkness of hell
he went in and kicked satans belly bell
yet his legendary task had gone unknown
until his nephew donkey had to tell
iii
people scoffed and said no way was feen so brave
donkeys are useless except as for slaves
but after many kicks to the scoffers heads
the people admitted to being knaves
iv
spread the story across the land serene
of the bravest donkey that’s ever been
and may all the heads bow out of respect
you’re a better ass than I uncle feen

Bravo! This reminds me of Picasso’s great and simple black-and-white drawing of Don Quixote and Rocinante, and Sancho Panza and his ass, Dapple…(also, Picasso’s childlike drawing = brevity in image, artistic compression at its maximal; it tells the whole story of the novel in one small picture)…

I had to do this twice upon remembering that Gunga “Din” is actually prounonced Gunga “Deen.”
