NORMAL SERVICE WILL BE RESUMED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE
Switched on the TV the other night
and saw this florid red face,
what a fright,
it was preaching mayhem and murder
as a birthright,
dementia on tap, what a sight,
almost shouting and spitting,
ready to ignite,
take your medication I thought and save some
poor country from blight,
next appeared a pale figure
ever so slight,
calm and collected and intellectually
bright,
killing to him was done
with foresight,
he peered from that box as though
through a gunsight,
so, who were these two, overeager
to smite,
a PM and a PM-in-waiting,
quite.
