Disunited We Freeze

What is the purpose of your visit young man? I heard that you have the best marmalade in the world Well we do import oranges but you look a bit foreign to us I am a seasoned voyager look at the stickers on my case That is what we are worried about just making sure you are not a friend of Islam Just a travelling tourist Sir and I am not a criminal communist either The usual hassle ensued at the border post and the police enjoyed its authority It gave them power and a reason to be with nothing better than a bit of control Made Britain great again and ruling over waves of incomers called for respect Open your bag we can sniff drugs and destruction because your skin is so dark It is called mixed complexion blame the Spanish because I am from Peru I can offer you some tales from my journeys to take home for the kids Bribery won’t work and now trap your dirty snout while we consider your entry You must be trafficking something and have come here to infest and destroy us Don’t like your sort and you are too big for your camouflage Wellington boots But my papers are in order please look at the stamp in my passport I have been to the world back and beyond and now you give me grief If you don’t keep your gob shut we must send you straight back to the jungle Not before we blessed your pigmented pelt with a firm handout from true justice I may look a tad scruffy to you but people come in all shapes and sizes Small I may be and yet I can fill hearts with joy and kind exotic delight He pleaded with the dignity of a stranger which was an alien concept to them Diversity had died very long ago and the Empire had suffered a solar eclipse The guard’s hearts had sclerosed from an onslaught of ignorance and regulation Luckily Paddington had a duffel coat and hat to keep him warm while detained 17th November 2019
