despite effort
when faced with
an onslaught of
absolute idiocy
the success rate
is assuredly dismal

someone much higher
up the food chain has
an epiphany which
despite having no real
chance of working out
the decision has been
cast from the mountain
and the peasants must
scramble to achieve
this most sacred duty

the view from an
ivory throne must be
grander than my perch
on a porcelain one
