Austerity is
Not just a long-term economic plan
But a ritual state of mind
A thin-lipped severity
My way the highway
And Protestant hot
Rites shot right through
With a missionary zeal
The taint of antiquated glue
*~*
Dinosaurs need for the Earth to be flat
Lest a curve or a slope puts them onto their backs
So their lumbering carcasses bury their heads
Which is why they don’t know they are already dead
