This mess subtlety smoothed before the rakes
rattled bones - the give-and-take repartee was
at best faked - although practical jests blessed
aires of relief; been here before we say like an
an apology or much used metaphor. So who’s
chairing our farce today - the agenda reads as
dismally as a sentence pending. We’ve all got
to reach agreement. Please. Pleads the Chair
accord with a majority view we may individually
disagree with, but represents the best medium
for the least controversy - meaning if you can’t
agree you must keep your silence discretely, a
test, if you wish, of our cherished democracy
drown in raucous uproar - the door has a sign
Committee in Session, Silence Please! - so to
keep faith raise both hands to say ‘yea’, a left
middle finger to say ‘nay’, or keep ‘em out of
sight to be counted separately
