So let’s take a walk

Köttbullar it seems is the work
Of some talented culinary Turk
But a young Swedish king
Made a claim to the thing
And drove its creators berserk

Some cunning Republican guys
Think Donald should get a big prize
For trying to increase
The chances of peace
In Korea. Do you think that’s wise?
