due to circumstances
beyond our control
all your second chances
to obtain parole
have been exhausted
as the year advances
we will take a poll
please provide finances
they do play a role
it has been costed
whether it enhances
our eventual goal
don’t plan any dances
or to take a stroll
or to be roasted
but, marshalling phalanxes
not just any troll
using sharper lances
they’ll write nothing droll
and it’ll be hosted
meantime furtive glances
don’t work on the whole
guards eschew romances
damage to their soul
or so they boasted
