See the unsavory pol trying to hide
His habit of pigging out on pheasant
Under glass instead of tripe—still
Under the circumstances, one has to agree
One cannot be too conservative; you see
The down-and-out still have this nose
For bullshit that’s downright cruel
And can smell when someone’s stuffing
His craw on pâté de foie gras while serving
The chawbacons back on the farm
Liberal helpings of hogwash and gruel.
Chawbacons! A new, probably very old, word for me. Lucian himself would admire this one, Vassilis. Tight as a freshly wound watch....
ReplyDeleteIt's an honor to be included in the kitchen staff of that poetic, cutting-edge eatery that has Lucian as one of its knife-wielding chefs--time for another helping of chawbacons, please!
