punditry

[fledgist]

this is an age of fracture and regret

so much depends on the set of each sail

and right this moment we face a stiff gale

 

you won't be asked to foster nor abet

those who would add a comma to the tale

this is an age of fracture and regret

 

on the high wind so many hopes were set

knowing that all too soon plain words would fail

nothing remaining blunt force to curtail

this is an age of fracture and regret
