Ode to Sir Peter Anderson,

Secretary General of the Conch Republic

By Trinidad Joe/Joe Allen/Sir Lancelot

 

Peter came to Key West

On a full moon night,

His sole purpose

Was fun and delight

*

He led a group

Called the Conch Republic,

And I’m sure everyone

Is better for it

*

Our passports were as real

As Monopoly money,

Some folks traveled using them

And that’s pretty funny

*

Saint Peter and Sir Peter

Will make a great heavenly pair,

They won’t be playing harps

It’s conch shells blowing that you’ll hear

*

He called me Sir Lancelot,

First Knight of the Republic,

I won the KW Poetry Slam

With my poem based on it

*

My running for Governor

Made him very proud,

“Let’s win this for Sir Peter!”

Now, shout it out loud!

*

Who will succeed him?

We’ll have to wait and see,

Finnebar or Frank, the Magician

Is all right with me.
