A Crisis But Not a Conundrum

I looked in the dictionary thrice To find out what is a conundrum Then I used all my computer mice To turn my hand into a fulcrum. Language as leverage’s useful To persuade a consumer to borrow Say what you like, if you’re truthful. We all may be dead by tomorrow. It’s a crisis but not a conundrum We all have to vote right on Thor’s day For we have a troubled referendum. Democracy’s folly in wordplay Well,give me some brandy,if handy. I’m ancient and foreign and cheerless No-one can live well on candy I’m weeping inside but I’m tearless
