Just let me say this about that

by John Bricuth

John Bricuth's hilarious and lyrical narrative poem takes the form of a press conference, hosted by "Sir," who is either God, the President of the United States, everybody's father, or a combination of the three - someone (either sage or psychoanalyst) to whom one takes one's problems or refers one's queries "as to one who knows." The questioners are three journalists, Bird, Fox, and Fish. They start by asking what seem to be political questions but end by asking for no less than the value and meaning of life.
