My Three Wishes

my three wishes are very common:
number one - to speak like a Roman,
number two- to reveal the liars,
number three- to be well-hired,
to do what I should be doing-
teaching, writing and doing research,
for a penny not to search,
to be sitting under a birch
to pay off every debt,
to be paid on time and well,
to drown liars in the well
of an ancient German tribe
so that they all would be punished
by the space and by the time
making them to study my rhymes
late at night, when we hear chimes,
to pay all them only dimes,
to make them all eat sour limes
and wear long and ugly ties,
make them live with the worst wives,
and be bit by bees from hives,
make them write down all their lies
and read them to the swindlers,
so that they'll be beaten by the winners,
those who have told the best lie ever
not pardoning them, no! and never!
to make them explain their lies to the crowd
yelling out
the lies aloud,
to decorate them with lie medals
covering their way with petals
of the most unpleasant flowers,
making them eat what is sour,
what is sour, what's super-spicy
for the lying and the bias,
then, to roll them with rusty wires,
treat their toungues with burning fire...
it's enough! I am now tired.
