In Protest

How dare they give this thing to ME

Don’t they know who I am?

I command the third dragoon

With turns from my left hand

How could they think to slight me

To put this in my path

When I’ve so many medals

More than any other hath?

This truly is outrageous

I’ll fume, protest, I’ll picket

How could they be so bold as to

Give ME this traffic ticket?
