A setting of a poem by Canadian poet Dennis Lee. "Dopey" comes from the 2007 poetry collection "Yesno", evoking - in the author's words - "a world in which the demolition derby and the possibility of living more constructively in the natural order are both real. And at once. So, not just no; not just yes; but yesno."
