Gotter Oughter (or GPI: General Paralysis of the In Vain)

I was a lot–
Forget me not!
My head is coal;
My arse is hot!
If I’m around
the afterthought,
Tell everyone
I’ve got my ought.
(shh shh shh)
About the years of eighty-two,
I newly borned
Just likey you!
But I was given special eyes
And blinded to
my own demise.
(clap clap clap)
I am a ton–
Egregious one–
A misty eye,
A burning bun.
If I’m aground,
I was outdone–
Too late to stay;
Too dead to run.
(shh shh shh)
Around the year two-thousand-three,
I shed the bread
For Bourgeoisie.
I took it to the peopled streets
To beg for
Glitter bits to eat.
(clap clap clap)
I was a lot–
FORGET ME NOT!
My head is coal;
My arse is hot!
If I’m around
the afterthought,
Tell everyone
I’ve got my ought.

Jerron is this meant to be a poem or a song? For me it read as if it had a melody built into it.
Well, this is actually a literal translation from the Uralic of ancient Hungary, Turns out they were a very sing-songy people.
And strange, too.
My translation did, in a way, coax it to a jig–or rather it pulled me.
Thanks for reading and thanks even more for taking the time to let me know what you thought. That’s awesome. And I think you’re spot on!
Your quite welcome, I really liked it! May I ask what the Uralic is exactly??? I have never heard of it before.
Ancient dialect of some old Hungarians.Those guys were nuts! Just another reworking of mine
. Tincanning the world one work at a time! And thanks again for the liking.
No problem! ::) I look forward to your next post!
Stopped in to say hello on a clappy-clap post, Jerron! Hope you well.
