LIFE LINES
Shanks, Gongle
Gongle Shanks always stood on his head
He slept that way, never went to bed
He did not like to stand on his feet
Or sit on a stool or a comfy seat
His behaviour was odd and some did say
'Why stand on your head all night and all day?'
Gongle's answer was simple and not that profound.
'The world looks better upside down'
'I've seen this place from top to bottom'
But upside down it's not so rotten'
'I dislike this land it's in a tangle'...
