Cut to size

Senior milords don’t want
Juniors on Bench to differ
But with intelligent independents
Dissents they may suffer

In private they may sulk
May even voice their say
But seldom have we seen
Anger on public display

Live telecast of proceedings
Capture mirth as well as rage
For the theatre of the absurd
Social media is an ideal stage

With thousands watching
A milord lost his cool
His junior stayed unruffled
Which made him look like a fool

The viral spread of that clip
Induced milord to later apologise
The Alpha Male Judicial Ego
Appeared somewhat cut to size

Now on orders of administration
Episode is erased from memory
After a while we will all forget
And wait for some other sad story.
