POLITICAL CORRECTNESS

 

POLITICAL CORRECTNESS 

 

Each word he spoke was carefully checked

in a quest to ensure it was socially correct.

But hell and damnation

he lost concentration

when a lapse in judgement (which is something he’d dreaded)

led to him calling his boss pig-headed,

and it came to pass that he fell from grace

 for a racist slur on a farmyard race.
