I’m breaking two rules of my weblog here, but as it is mine, I find no problem bending my rules, eh? Well, politics and personal poetry—such as it is—on the front page. So enjoy or not as the casus may be. (Three rules—puns, sorry.)

They read good books, and quote, but never learn
a language other than the tail’s swishing turn.
Our straighter talk is sound and ironclad:
the tyranny, the murders, and the mad.
