The Royal Households Of ...

Things got bad. The king    
insisted all palace pillows    
be stuffed with feathers    
from angels’ wings -    
So they were shot down    
wings hacked off    
like shark or dolphins’ fins    
for soup or strange medicines.    
    
The British Foreign Office Minister condemned    
the Saudi’s mass-execution this week    
of 37 prisoners for ‘spying’, etc    
but when pressed on selling weapons    
used by Saudis to bomb Yemen    
forgot to mention it was because    
there were no more angels left    
to protect the Yemeni children -    
regretfully ... “There is a moral dilemma here.    
There is a deep murkiness here that we do not like”.    
   
Then the king barged in    
on the conversation, offering pillows    
for children to rest their heads.    
Realising later most of the injured children    
were dead, retracted the offer and said    
it would save money so the royal dogs    
could continue to be well fed.
