If Its Me



What would be the worst way t’ circumnavigate 
this epistle - maybe thru Shade’s idee of whose 
Canberra’s at stake - & like putting wagers in th’ 
contest you’d never registered for - or made th’ 
case of listening to sane reasoning - oops, if its  
me I apologise; its probably what I’d’ve thought 
I’d see if I’d ever opened their Book, you know, 
th’ one they sanctimoniously quote ad infinitum 

But for me no public words exist describing this 
injustice stripped to incredible one-sidedness; if 
the perpetrators were able t’ see they’re th’ only 
hegemony mentioned even obliquely, in camera, 
or wherever, we’d’ve made it into a comedy and 
put it on stage as intro to The Age of Innocence
