Kill U. or it kills U.S.

Nothing so sets citizen against citizen
as Alma Mater, child of Absolute Monarchy

its first job is to winnow the wheat from the chaff
so that the issue of Lord Bastardson be seated first

and never in rooms with Dickensian hooligans, or
an Irishman, or a Catholic from Spain, or

h.a.m.
