In A Manner of Speaking

Sundae

In a manner of speaking,
no one is innocent.

In a manner of speaking,
my country tis of thee,
of thee I sing for you,
once mighty,
and now…
…a twat.

In a manner of speaking,
I’m thinking of writing something
I’ll later regret.

In a manner of speaking,
the Kessler effect states,
and then predicts,
the destruction of a majority
of Earth’s artificial satellites
in the foreseeable future.
Therefore,
I amuse myself
with a spoon
while waiting
and waiting.
