Will Flem be a gem?



The total bummer of our wasted Test summer….ahem

Does jar well below par no cigar not even a cafe creme

After another dafter dumber and dumber apophthegm

The tedium of this charlatan medium saying carpe diem

Couldn’t be any glummer still will take Baz to the ATM


Laughter him on a whim mending a forlorn torn hem

We pleaded tree needed to go not the Root but stem

Pretending will be happy ending Bazball’s Bethlehem


ECB & Key glib in tandem fib as random as a Lib Dem

English cricket’s viral spiral now coughing up phlegm

The gory gashes from Ashes lashes will still condemn 


Then Stokes says that’s all folks was absolute mayhem

Jokes he’ll back in the 2027 eleven it’s us versus them


After hoax new Kiwi bloke evokes masterstrokes a gem

No longer going for broke a stronger bespoke requiem

Will coax the magic unlike the tragic Bazball "La Boheme"

No superhero cloaks as from acorns grow oaks says Flem
