New poem: "A Sober Canadian"

 

A Sober Canadian

 

It had to happen one day,

the child had to become a man;

and along came a sober Canadian

to show us the way. No more big

brother to lean upon (he turned

out to be a bully), and no more

reason to prevaricate; the time

had come to say NO, and Carney

took the ball away from the bully

and began to play the deadly

game of Realpolitik.

 

Composed in Tiny Beaches,
