“Thievery and fraud, coercion and cunning” screamed out one
But “evidence to support the allegation I can find none”
Citizens wolfed down pizzas and imbibed bourbon to ward off sleep
Not knowing, at the unfolding fiasco, whether to laugh or to weep
Judges were hustled to quickly decide many a writ
Experts on media hiding porn notifications while trying to maintain their grit
A democracy from under its feet finds the earth falling away beneath
Put a bloody end to the charade and just BEQUEATH!
