/// At this wide-open gate into Wien,
the guard dozes; men enter unseen.
After lunch much white wine
brought on sleep. Pleasant Time.
No one wakes him. He seems so serene.
/// If he’s found, while on duty, asleep,
the hot water he’s in will be deep.
No more sitting on benches
flirting with pretty wenches.
Not his job nor his freedom he’ll keep.
/// He’s complained sentry duty is boring,
and he proved it by drooling and snoring.
Disobeying his orders
to guard the town’s borders,
his solution to crime is “ignoring.”
