Assimilating The Only Surviving Immolated Neo Conservative

  There are four ways to get in.
           Ears, nose, arse and mouth.
           I have instructed the gendarmes
           to send extra men to these areas.
           They usually attack by land but
           there is no guarantee this will occur
           in any previously displayed pattern.
           Our oceans deserve serious consideration
           since many documentaries about penguins
           have become informatively concerning.
           These former sentries of our land have
           now deprived us of any pliable security.
           We must unite in our noble cause.
           Helmets, metal guards, and plugs
           are still available at bargain discounts.
           One need only consult the stars.
