. . . ... now "the lot of you" sounds too inclusive
shame is such a big concept . . . .. .
you could have concluded your excellent
checklist of crucial criteria with the type of quote or
homily you often have so ready to hand . .
like a quote from Bruce Dawe's "After you Gary Cooper" . .
(a poem that speaks of the gun-slinger mentality memorably...
that's why it escapes me for the moment . . . cannot
even 'clear leather')
. . . something pointed . . . something like a caution
. . . something like telling off the bird who will crap in his own nest
