Beware of Excellencies: A cautionary tale for Amnesty letter writers

em = By Duncan Richardson

Beware of Excellencies

whose addresses cover

A4 envelopes

titles and sub-titles

bulging with double

bullet-proof vests.

and though you often wish

for pages grained with arsenic

you know that

these Excellencies

not only shoot the messengers

but they never touch

their own mail.
