-
The mud smeared on your boots from where you're been walking.
-
A touch of red brick dust
-
on your knee from where you're been kneeling.
-
A small bandage on your thumb from
-
where you're been vowing.
-
A faint aroma of excrement from where you'se been standing.
-
You and Blackwood laid the final toches to your ceremony
-
in the sewers beneath parliament
-
less than an hour ago.
-
Both houses meet today.
-
The whole government will be present.
-
It's a shame you made an enemy out of Blackwood, Holmes.
