Log Rolling
Like debris then that clutches rolling logs,
this fit of time ensnares like demogues.
What e'er was wholesome, now in total fog
does placate for it's venture, fanfares bog!
Aye, celebrate the venture, 'morrow's clog
will by the neck's redemptor's cost with smog,
the Monarchy's indenture, total flog
will strip away your mention, your works . . . rogue!
Then give you no attention, your need's ~ dog
to grind you to dimension less than cog.
This tree to birth did bring, your cutting's tog
was gathered for wealth's pension ~ your's they hog ~
And thereby River tossed, like . . . . rolling logs!
