So, Justin
Harper Derangement Syndrome
has gotcha again
as all the good things
your predecessor accomplished
you’ve had to unravel
even though the process produced
one of the best Queen’s representatives
in Mr. David Johnston

Vetting of Governors General
by non-partisan arms-length committee
out the window
with a wave of your hand
a favor for a friend
as former PM Chretien
whispered in your ear
she's the one

Celebrity scientist and astronaut
what could go wrong?
and a woman to boot!
only three years after it was a fait-accompli
did you learn the horror story
from former staffers and employers

A she-bitch from Hell
and her assistant
of similar demeanor
landing at Rideau Hall
her royal highness creating a
toxic workplace so foul
even the construction workers harassed
as they carried out her renovation orders

Does not play well with others
rings a certain familiar bell

And now after as always
the truth comes out
Ms. Payette is resigned to fancy free
with a life-long indexed
six-figure pension, travel perks
for only three and a half years’ work
despite technically fired

With no skin off your nose, Justin
though one of any number of things
that could cost you the next election
yet knowing your Teflon makeup
and nice hair
will probably bounce off
