This poem is written in Cascade form.
************************************************************
the monkey climbed a flag pole
with a single tea bag held in its hand
exclaiming I can see Russia from here
with both feet tucked in its mouth
rising above the rabble far below
the monkey climbed a flag pole
about causes it chattered and screeched
in words most inarticulate and grand
with a single tea bag held in its hand
at the top the monkey gazed in confusion
across a vast frozen land soon to disappear
exclaiming I can see Russia from here.
