Superiors’ Specifications
She was paid well to kill several exotic creatures,
Scaly, slimy beasts, all mottled, even cold-blooded,
Pets of corporate lawyers plus some beggar proxies.
Beyond the teeth, claws, many toxins, outworlders
Remained unthreatened, persisted as trade partners;
Intellectual prowess usually wins over most worlds.
Few leads owning rumblegumption raised objections.
They, likewise, employed beings as narratives’ actors,
Elsewise exiled folk to the dated Kingdom of Sikkim.
Hence, denizens, all a fluster, felt deep swivet, buckled.
(Unlike dodgy balladeers’ products, Old World animals
Agendas traffic sluggishly, massacred fiends excepted.)
Political correctness’ vulgar nature, no matter precisely
The soft objects rubricked as “ideologically dangerous,”
Washes up in despair and attempts passé civic function.
At least such bosh successfully impacts idiots, often
Contextualizes sentiment, nickel and dimes stomach-
Churning-linked advocacy, kinkajou’s prehensile tails.
Elsewhere, underhanded producers infuse manuscripts,
Mask worthy messages as void of critical or creative
Motes (both deliberately plus mistakably). We’re sunk.
Not Loving the CDC’s Word Ban
Banning lexicon is old school, like censoring: Brave
New World, Of Mice and Men, To Kill a Mockingbird,
All Quiet on the Western Front, Persepolis, Candide.
Term lists ought not to proscribe equality. Municipal
Boldness, realized thru rhetorical vehicles, exposure,
Evidence-based forms of unusual platforms, obliges.
See, diversity increases awareness. Idiolects encourage
More than “7 Words You Can’t Say on TV,” safeguard
Against certain groups’ entitlement superseding justice.
It’s known that hate names cause populations’ collapse,
Suffer vulnerable folk to kowtow to discrimination - no
Matter peccadilloes of handcuffed language, judgment.
Not any science-based “verities” belong before liberties;
Even “slogging masses” need determine whether simple
Speech or magniloquence best supplies privation, tastes.
Eliminating descriptions like “transgender” oddly vogues
Archaic anopisthographs, triggers “modern” medicine to
Become “politics as usual,” rather than flowering mutiny.
Critical thinking appears in the fetus stage, towered over
By budget deliberations, Capitol Hill say-so, selfish goals.
Nevertheless, championing communication remains noble.
Other Olden, “Logy” Communications
Given our present dearth of overall decent characters, those folks, who might vault beyond
Current mutagenicity, continue to advise: sheltering among obdurate guardians, skipping all
Peripatetics.
Carpine minds esteem temporal and fiduciary investments of an anodyne nature, highly praise
Potemkin village rhetoric. They “esteem” preventing corsairs’ infiltration, pilfering, pillaging,
Mores.
It’s not dysthymia, but erstwhile abnormal functions, which appear sound, in lieu of random
Flummery, pusillanimous tribute, chin feathers, donkey tails, baldrics, hiccups, maybe asps’
Tongues.
Unlike most fireplace analogies, supports for ideas, whether sourced from cognitive spanners
Or from hammer-like habitués accustomed to hot beverages, dewars, tea service, horse sense,
Stink.
Bute, akin to fresh analgesic drugs, offers no resistance to infernal plots, yet remains popular.
(We even now clinch adamantine beliefs in the suitability of the Insen scale, vinegar malts, wilding,
Communism.)
Moreso, choropleth maps, from which we learn “collective truths:” cull Internet music, use
Buprenorphine for opioid addiction, reject homeopathic dental treatments, as well as linger
Laughably.
Furthermore, vellichor is yesteryear’s parlous moment. Civility, too, stays antiquated; none
Seek tokens of proven decorum, manners explored in archives, prayers, other olden, “logy”
Communications.
Ultimately, pogonips, thunder storms, khamsins equally trouble engaged cleaning crews;
“Ordinary,” exiguous messes, whose polyphonic cores resound boldly, cause unrelenting
Biliousness.
