Rabbits round the workers’ maypole,
Rabbits round the workers’ maypole:
Máy-ó, may-yáy-ay-ay-ó
Maylight come and me wan’ go home
Trochaic tetrameter to welcome in the month of May. Allegro agitato, then andante desideroso.
The illustrations:
(#1) White rabbits around the maypole — on a pink cake!
Rabbits, symbols of fertility and fecundity, worshiping the May phallus. And you can eat it all.
(#2) SF May Day March 201 7 — in red!
The White, the Pink, and the Red.
