We wondered how long it would be before the
fringe rounded on the hem and bleated about
pleats the Cyclone barely ever articulated; it’s
safe to say in only three days an engendered
lunacy of the direst threats to common sense
gave way to acerbic sanity with terse redress
from an aged legend - who’d survived worse,
saying, geeze, whose idea was all that crap!
Brisbane. If’t blows down there we’ll come ‘n
save you from yourselves; meantime - leave
off the imaginary dramatics - hysteria’s all th’
blanket-mouth support we’ve ever got from
your egoists chasing their own publicity
