RESPONSIBLE LEADERSHIP

A Silly Sonnet
By Izzy Sommers
For November, 2005
In Welland, Canada

In view of Esterhazy’s tendencies
To promulgate impossible decrees,
The populace of Camelot am Nod
Ignored the summons on Saint Simon’s Pod
To cast away their red felt hats and lean
Instead to purple polka-dotted green
Berets, displayed in Saint Bartholomew’s
Olde Haberdashery & Salmon Mews
For non-expectant mothers and their dads
Who satisfied the latest modes and fads.
Arrests were made and prosecutions had
For inappropriateness, good and bad,
Of underwear and outerwear, in plaid,
In those who entertained an undergrad.
