" Going Beyond "...

" Going Beyond "

Going beyond
messes
at the top
while running
"at large"
from even-
more-complex
confidantes

not having gotten
to the bottom
of, "What's What?"
like the misbegotten,
" Something's Rotten!"

seeming farcical
left fitfully in stitches
as unhonered traditions
in moshups of Cheshire grins

delivering unbridled pessimisms
for tongue-in-cheek cynics
of massive redactions
by slap-happy big wigs
being covertly quaffed
by elephantine Grand Old Parties...
