Where no tyranny is tolerable

The Battle of Chooh Cheeh
A generic, nameless hill engagement in Korea

I am at the battle of chooh cheeh.
The battle of chooh cheeh
will go down in military infamy
like the battle of big rock,
the battle of the bushes,
and the battle of big mama,
which has been dubbed
the battle of all mothers.
The Chinese army attacks and captures us.
The Chinese commander
praises me for my great courage
in the battle of chooh Cheeh.
He takes me to a bunch of picnic tables.
He offers me a chicken.
He says it is a good socialist chicken
from Bulgaria,
but I would rather have Chinese.
So the Chinese commander gets out his cell phone
and calls a Chinese restaurant in America.

And don't forget the fortune cookies!

This so-called poem may not be translated using Bable Fish!
But maybe the fortune cookies can be translated ...

OK, so this means you ate the spicy Chinese take-out dinner, right? Funny story, amigo.
(Save me a fortune cookie?)
