Ortolan Sung from Murder Mart by Zinskē

Bureaucrats in basement
devising plans
followed the ortolan
up the stairs

hats off to the waitstaff
and the chef
prepared the maincourse
laced with rat poison

look away they're sickening
president just vomited
on the best man
photographs and film of the decadence
protected by clad-iron waivers

now they're all
strung out
laughing
on the ground

security's all waiting
open-mouthed
jumped on the senator
when he pissed himself

minister just raided
top-shelf
harassed the caterer
and the bride's locked out

look away they're sickening
we celebrate the treacherous
at their final hour

here's to the great
and prestigious
fairly elected guides and saviors

but should you need a favor
reach out
we'll try
never betray
