Minister for the Preservation of White Male Boomers
The Honourable Henry stops and thinks out loud to himself.
“I have statesmanlike poise, deep insight and ethical standards,
And I could really make a positive difference to this nation!”
But from all around him comes a howling gale of laughter,
From every corner of the Dominion,
Building, swelling and echoing.
“HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!”
The Honourable Henry blinks back a tear.
“How rude,” says the wounded impresario.
“I have feelings too, you know.”
