Of a Lack in Our Administrations
In all this system I watched a cloud fall
Carted wet down the design
Need is a big pool
Lo go its creaturely waves
Commerce came open and bright like a starfuck
"I hear, with great shame for our century"
Last zing on the stairs
"So-and-so wants company to Paris; so-and-so is looking for a
servant with such-and-such qualifications"
Execution too diddled back then
"So-and-so wants a master"
