We Are All Of The Same Rank (Bussokusekika)
Let it be known that
The Sabbath shall be hallowed
Let the counting cease
Oh ye weary of souls rest
Even a jester can wait
We are all of the same rank

About this poem
Standard rates will be honored for all those involved in the counting…In addition the Sabbath will be paid time and a half…And the customary 15% tip shall be issued…With the stipulation being 15% of the total bounty determined divvied up among the presiding HO or HO’s involved…Due to the complexity of the count…I am a simple man and I require very little…Poems in question which can not be confirmed nor attributed to being from me shall be donated to small unknown charities not affiliated with known associations…Happy Holidays to one and all…
