King Dunce

King Dunce makes concessions now and then
But the gestures may prove hollow
Still denying a collusion's ills
The truth is yet to follow

He would remove the worthy ones
Those who have remained for years
Returned to lands they had long since fled
Now back wearing a veil of tears

The investigation presses on
Questions asked in secrecy
But King Dunce continues with his dance
Long out of step with decency.
