satirical poems

Headlines | Stan Morrison

we want you to know that
you can learn about anything
that we want you to know
that might does make right
and the meek inherit nothing
that facts are always fickle
and litigation is lugubrious
stiff upper lip is preposterous
in the face of the disastrous
the ballot box is not the answer
windmill noise causes cancer

Legal Counsel | Stan Morrison

a double negative isn’t always nothing
it is both a negation and a confirmation
clarity is not necessarily desirable
it may get in the way of one’s goals
and it confounds the innocent
when using language creatively
one gains by losing transparency
I hope that you follow me so far
