Under the cardboard palm

Oh, sweet cardboard palm tree!
Which crazed publicist made you?
Six feet tall, you were a beacon in the Toronto Sun city room.
For years, editors walked past The Palm atop my desk.
Probably not in rapture.
I have not forgotten you, dear RattyPalm.
Nor have a decade of Sun staffers, still wondering: WTF? 
How does he get away with this crap?
It was a golden era.
There was silly. There was fun.
Okay, boomer. 
Bedtime.
