It was quite funny, but I have several objections :)

1- it doesn't parse (three sentences without separation).
2- {kai} should tag something with a property, not a property.

"it's also the only one I've seen that maintains rhyme 
and meter throughout"

3- it doesn't exactly maintain rhyme and meter. Syllable 
counts are 6-6-9 5-5-9 5-5-9, and do you want to stress 
"ZO doi E zo CAI" to match "TCEtce GLEki SAI"? Also 
{REMpai} doesn't rhyme with the others, at least not with 
my understanding of rhymes.
4- you should have seen, for example
<http://www.lojban.org/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=doi%20dirba>
among others.
