Your Empire, Sir

 

 

You War on Terror, Sir

          And “arrogant unilateralism.”

Your talk of “regime change”

           and an “evil axis,”

                    of “unruly countries,”

                                     and “friendly governments,”

                        in the age of “netwars,” Sir,

                            in the early years of the Third Millennium, Sir,

                                and the early days of the Imperium,

is, frankly speaking, Sir,

   and at the risk of offending, Sir,

                             seriously offending, Sir,

          appears rife with stupidity, Sir,

                                 downright stupidity, Sir –

 
you’re simply not the imperial type.

 

   And the Empire, Sir,

               the Empire is but a blasphemy

                      against everything decent that remains, Sir,

                                                everything,

                                                everything.

                              though not too much of it remains, Sir,

                                             not much at all.

                                              Not much at all.
