the long slumber

The long slumber


So, here we are a day sadder, if now wiser
Norway is in focus, since the Epstein saga
showing us how corrupt Norway had become
run by a clique of people behaving like Fascists
In Italy, they did during their time
Giving each other top jobs like ambassadorship 
and the economic top job, while keeping old peoples
pension low, well, we can't spoil the old folk
Will anyone face jail time? Possibly not in Norway
It can be a forgiving mood.
My criticism of the sitting regime, for that is
what it is; people representing themselves and
a population asleep
