Song of the Mortal God

[RiverNotch]

I'm assuming, at least on its first level, that this poem is a comment on the merciless sinking of the
Conservatives' malevolent leviathan by my resplendent Liberals in Canada's federal election a few
days ago; and that the "Mortal God" is Prime Minister Stephen Harper (a wannabe Hobbesian ruler
if ever there was one).

But before I use this as the basis for my critique, I just thought I'd ask: Is the ecstatic delight and
overwhelming relief this jubilant liberal is experiencing from such a wondrous vanquishing having an
effect on my explicative skills? If such is the case, I'll need to regroup. Not a thousandth as much as
those Tolkien Orc Conservatives, but regroup nonetheless.

I wasn't thinking partisan thoughts as I wrote this; how could I, when where I live, all parties are of equal ineptitude? Nevertheless, on a level, I do consider this to talk of a Hobbesian ruler's fall. As for whether your ecstasies will affect your judgement, that's not for me to say.
