Poem 4-Catullus's Grand Solution to The Acta Problem

You all speak of unification and the acta of Caesar.

Catullus has a grand idea!!

Let us all, Republicans, Caesarians, and others alike,

Let us all join at my house!

We shall drink and socialize and become friends again (for we all know how I LOVE love).

Then when we are all fuzzy with wine and hold love for our brothers

We can bring forth this scary acta, with its contents unknown,

And as friends figure out what to do together.

It is only politics, senators. It is only the fate of this republic.

Let us spice up the reading!

Wine only brings clarity, as some of you believe better than others.

My house is a warm and comfortable space.

And as a man who you all love and hold dearly, where better! I shall invite Libo to co-host

(for this man is the only sane one in the senate!)

I'll read, you'll listen, we'll all drink and then when all has been revealed

And we have all come together in love, BAM!

All this political nonsense will be settled.

Or if you disagree with my plan, by all means take your time and debate some more!

It is only the fate of the republic senators. Take your time!

(perhaps even a year as some say)....no rush senators. It's only politics.
