So today’s grizzle suggests we need an ‘upper’ house
back in our State Parliament, its last edifice abolished
back in 1922, doubtlessly for all the right reasons yet
the same pretexts for objecting (or supporting it) are
aired this gum-beating session; nothing's changed it
seems. Or maybe the anachronisms we elect are too
selfishly imbued with an eclectic sense of importance
such that not having it in place, or debated noisily
deliriously believed. Crikey, there’s too many deviant,
egocentric wastes of space in there already - and you
don’t need to be reminded where their interests lie, a
blind man sees in glare of that egregiously dedicated
self pursuit - you can’t miss its star-like flare
