Demonstrations In Lockdown

Waiting around in our lockdown Keeping busy without a frown Suddenly what did I see on TV Something that I thought I’d never see Surely not they aren’t that dumb A demonstration in lockdown for fun They abused everyone but mostly it was the police And they demanded a quick lockdown release There was a fire eater there as well For entertainment they thought was swell So I wondered why these people decided COVID 19 was not for them and not provided Some people only open their mouths for us to be enticed That they are self centred and can’t be left to their own device So they are fined for being out whilst not allowed And beating horses which was so foul The only saving grace in it all for us Is that their mates dob them in without a fuss. © Paul Warren Poetry
