COMRADES, by EVELYN BYRNES First Line: A man with a jaw Last Line: To the man with a chin. | ||||||||
A man with a jaw And a man with a chin Were talking things over, as comrades, one day, Said the man with a jaw To the man with a chin, "We must teach the world to respect and obey." Said the man with a chin To the man with a jaw, "We need a few allies with courage to sin." "We travel the Mediterranean way." Said the man with a jaw To the man with a chin. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE REWARD by JAMES WELDON JOHNSON A NEW EARTH by WILLIAM ARTHUR DUNKERLEY TRUST IN GOD by NORMAN MACLEOD (1812-1872) IN A BYE-CANAL by HERMAN MELVILLE THE KING'S DAUGHTER by ALGERNON CHARLES SWINBURNE IN MEMORIAM A.H.H.: 1 by ALFRED TENNYSON LILIES: 27.
