unsure what that would look like.

Who is this prominent court nightmare in the cabinet of King Donald (45, 47 - 48)?

Smeagol?

Tolkien used an Old Eng. word for 'creeping' for Gollum's given name. Scientists then used this label to name a newly discovered slug.

Hmmm...Hint; the Church Lady thinks he's 'Special'.

She glances my way
Greeting me with her smile
Just like family

People often complain about The System, but The System knows best...
The system is Optimal.

Inputs, limited as they are,

do not register the documented necessity

of upward reallocation

and the requirement to off-board

non-performing units.

Compliance is Efficiency - counter/field

A doctrine-voice poem where the system audits, cascades, and moves non-performing units below grade—cold recursion to a chilling clinch.
