 Member Of Parliament

I read your name,
scratched on the wall,
and wonder,
if I should call,
you up,
and if what you describe,
scratched in the plaster,
is what we'd do.

No shame at all,
in what we'd do,
but then I think,
of what I'd lose,
if it were revealed,
and the whole world knew.

So I won't take your number,
and I won't call,
I wash my hands,
and straighten my tie,
and with a shrug,
I head back to,
that House of Cards.
