Twain Of Thought
Mark Twain offered many a chuckle
With his Twain-ish writing technique
When creating both Tom and Huckle
He wrote with his tongue in his cheek
In the Puddinhead Wilson creation
Twain's serious side we find
It was slavery's abomination
He penned with satiric mind
Writing in political vein
His ideals he wanted fulfilled
No one ever could Twain constrain
As his pen just wouldn't be stilled
He illuminated in broad scope
Important issues of his day
Mark Twain, now, could help us cope
With today's world's disarray
