when everything mattered,
when tax breaks darling,when sentences were sentences,
when lip service served dessert,
when elk had leisure,
when even the musty remained,
when uncalled for fronds in the picnic display,
when Apache history gaslighted,
when simplistic rainfall goo goo ga joob,
when a piece of shit meant something,
when dialogue talked like oats,
Then
to the lists fair
elephants and prong, our
daily dose
calls to thee
and your implied traction,
cankers stand for festive,
politics makes mucous,
the sunless isles look
dark in this light, we are
friends to the end
