service industry

The purpose of your argument

might be better observed if
I clout you with it.
                                Social critics 
and dissidents reserve the privilege 
of immunity speech grants - they 
relish it! Yet
                     I find simply to serve 
them back their own with mustard 
does the trick neatly. We can't object

to our own, can we? Not, 
anyway, with our mouths 
full of it. To do so 

would put one on 
oneself's wrong side, 
discreetly.
