In Respect of Your Vote

Your presence is required at the polling station listed above. Your vote is not. You must proceed within the time limit to the booth indicated. Do not enter into eye contact with the guard or members of staff. Once in the booth fold your voting slip into the box provided. On no account should you mark or deface it. On leaving the polling station proceed along the prescribed route to your listed unit. You may be required on your journey to answer questions about your weight and neck size. A refusal to answer will offend.

Please hold the Party line. Your compliance is important to us.

Through the bars
a fresh bloom
attracting the wasp
