Defend Thy Bonus

Defend Thy Bonus!
(For Boris and Those City Boys of London)

“They’ll leave! They’ll leave!” 
He cried, with a look of sheer panic 
In those innocent blue eyes
“And ‘The City’ will be poorer without them....!” (he lied).

“Let them go!  Let them go!” I cried 
In fact let me help them pack
So I can be sure they won’t come back 
After, of course, they have all got the sack

Alright the GDP might wheeze 
Cough, splutter and sneeze,
But I for one won’t greave,
Oh how I do wish they would leave.

Enjoyed your poem, Anna. I must admit that I don't know the back story with Boris.
