Tragic Fire In London

London suffers more catastrophe As screams awaken sleepers in this tower A high rise block with only one exit Oh, many folk will take their mourning flowers. Some have made the SOS sign now Seen by people standing in the street The firefighters are not allowed inside So soon it will be death these people meet Who designed these cheap and dangerous flats? I can’t believe they had no fire exits Was the Referendum a cheap vote? Will we be asked to suffer through Brexit? These cheap flats brought death to many folks To leave the EU now seems but a jape.
