Brexit Sonnet 46 - a Brexit Gift

Brexit Sonnet No. 46 ‘A Brexit Gift’ What larks! A Brexit gift with double bow, A tale of two shires with border slung between. As cameras flash, a cashing stream doth flow To feed and nourish London’s clear air dream. Have I missed a move, a deliberate flit, To lands with stranger names I do not know? Wonder or Never look a perfect fit, Where puff and bluff are seen to run the show. At Camden’s line, keep thy steely gaze ‘Gainst escaping toffs with stupid schemes. A channel bridge, some bodies to be raised; And poetic gaffes galore with clumsy themes. So watchtowers keep your silent, weary guard. See him escaping, blow your whistle hard! ©Keith Murphy
