Caveat

 

CAVEAT

TAKE NOTICE that WE

The residents of Jurisdiction

claim interest in the affairs

of her boundaries,

without prejudice to

all bonafide borrowers

of each maritime she owns;

and the instruments of proprietorship

on all demarcated assets.

 

TAKE FURTHER NOTICE that

Whilst her leaders drown in guilt

because their belch choke yawns,

her followers lie in misery:

amazed at the audacity

that deprives her of nature’s splendor

 

and as her approved citizens,

entitled to all her facilities;

and as taxpayers,

sweating to reclaim her features,

We demand a halt to the plunder.

We,

  the Caveators.

 

In Witness hereof,

her Custodians.
