I couldnt help but think of the bbc when I read this. You, the up and comer trying to break into the establishment and them all hiding in offices with the lights off until you go awau with your fancy new ideas.
Well, in reality you were Basil, not John :)

[andrew mitchell]

Yes you might be right with Basil!. Thank you!

[Cool Girl]

Haha another splendid poem that I have had the pleasure to read, Mr. Mitchell. Now I must admit that it is a habit that I read at least one poem a day from you. It is always nice to have a good laugh which your poems provide :) Thank you very much for sharing. I look forward to reading more!

[andrew mitchell]

Thank you CG :):):):););)

[Cool Girl]

You're welcome

words, by invitation only...we want only good poems to enter...

love the Cleese reference...ah Bugger off...used to watch Monty Python's Flying Circus...

this made me smile....thinking of the window...and a word going up saying it had a complaint...but the person at the window telling the word "this is not complaints, it's arguments..."
