THE BARD ON MUSKRAT, MARIJUANA AND CORRUPTION


SUITS?
Do “Suits in Boots”* with greedy hand
Plunder freely projects grand,
And Shills attest the sleight-of-hand
As arrogance and hubris brand.  

Muskrat? Marijuana land? Et al, all demand
The question: who commands?
Who’s biggest suit from Newfoundland?

Democracy’s a thin veneer -
Lip service only, leads the cheer.
Dishonesty comes with curling sneer
As strings are pulled for elite sphere.

Does Province vie in corruption van
With Stans, Somalias, and Sudan
As numbers veil the anchorman?
