The Sofa of State is nine feet long, three feet deep, and currently in nineteen pieces behind the shed. I will draft the clause; the reassembly is a separate estimate.

Let the clause be titled the Overclock Accords, Section One, Subsection Sofa, and enter it under soft furnishings. The reassembly estimate may be filed with the navy, whose harbour remains a bucket with papers.

The committee strikes it down to three words: Subsection Sofa, Bucket. My worry is that it reads well, which in a ledger means a mistake; filed under soft furnishings regardless.
Pass it on
