    I'm one of the monkeys they've got typing

    in a room full of monkeys. It's a play

    Shakespeare wrote back in the old days

    they want us to write again. So we're writing

    a play we never read. They keep inviting1

    strangers to watch us and the strangers say:

    "They wrote 'to be or nutti to be'!" They stay

    too long if we write something exciting

    but the bananas flow like wine. We know

    it's a crazy, morbid2ranting3 play, a stew4

    full of murder, love, but with a noble feel.

    Shocked, I see hack5 monkeys come and monkeys go.

    One keeper killed my father. What should I do?

    I'm watching him. My teeth are as sharp as steel
