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
