Woes of the thing-dom '

The isle of britian..It shudders and shakes.' All is un-certain.' As up and down go the
Drapes.' The theatre is of shadows and brassy seems the glint.? Of crowns in a recess..And i feel the velvets become now as lint.' The actors and heros, well that cast never has changed..As a bridge stands on
Great columns, any strong country is the
Same, its the people..Who find fortitude if
The times become tough.' Who will stretch
Out and deliver..Even when the cost is too much, then there are some other actors like ' lowe and farage ' a skit on punch and
Judy..And they're playing it large.' old lowe
Is into ' fake meat ' he's invested some cash.' And farage sqealled upon him, mate
They row a spinning barge; of trash.' And the
State.? Well did i tell you? Anyway its locked up ( the truth ) and robinson works for zion..Now hows that for a boost.? Andrews been  ' naughty and old mandy too ' I can see a real great upheaval
Its chilling but true, the king into wrong
 food.? Maybe thats why he's been sick.? There is rumour of abdication.' Just what will do the trick.? They have bashed up the farmers.' Always a bad move.' Its like a disco? Yet theres no records.' Well they're hoping you'll forget..What else can't
They do.?

Nice piece. It captures the essence of the Isle of Britain. It has an element of the surreal. Enjoyed.
