A doggerel series
about the countries of the world.
Brunei.
It is a tiny
country there—
Small borders
and small sky.
It’s on the
isle of Borneo,
This place
that’s named Brunei.
Nearby lies
the South China Sea—
A mosque
that’s so well-known
Throughout
Islamic cultures--and
From jungles
comes the moan
From a
proboscis monkey that
Is sorry for
his fate—
A sizable
proboscis is
A hindrance
on a date.
It got its
independence in,
Yes, 1984.
And now its
tiny presence is
One thing
it’s noted for.
