Dedicated coniunctim to Edward Bernays, Joseph Goebbels, and William Henry Gates III

*This cleverly veiled reference to the toxic nature of the industrial petroleum derivatives used in manufacturing Blue Bonnet(TM) margarine, a lethal pseudo-food, and to the emphatically unpoetic nature of plague politics in 21st century human history, is, as always, more succinctly and, if I do say so, more aggressively expressed by the exalted Baroness Scylla, than by any of her competitors, inhabiting as she does a sphere all her own - untouched, unchallenged by wordsmiths of inferior station.
