Neat and Tidy

...Rows of green spaces in a row

Trying to control natures flow,

Trim the lawn curtai...

  Come to live in Kent
  A lovely place to be.
  Close to the continent.

in a quiet street with roses and hedges 
hanging over front fences 
with newly planted trees spaced

Premium MemberHalloween 2020

...They move from house to house
with a mask on each child's face,
knocking on the doors and then
all shouting 'Track or trace?'

Then went and touched the tap, which you really shouldn’t do,
And then I scratched my nose, because I had an itch, 
Then with my bare hands I...

...From neglect comes deviation, electrifying radiation, like a leaf in the shadow,
Drying stanza so bore-some, a bit much candidly said,

Causing psychological long term harm

Children being left traumatized

Depriving the community from ...

To feel the good, to feel the bad
To feel the happy...
