Babelfishing Poetry: Angels and Canada (Oh, I Wonder Why?)
Here's some more Babelfishing poetry, where I take song lyrics, run them through an on-line translator such as (but not necessarily) Babelfish, adjust the punctuation a bit, and wind up with a quirky kind of poem.

Women, sure,
all the shiny gold!
And he points to the sky

Sometimes we are all thinking,
"Oh, I wonder why?"
