It works every time,

Since Romans and before,

Public circus, all decked out,

And banalities they shout,

Well maybe, not quite so vile,

Someone wrote the script,

Soothing sort of words and verse,

It’s quite perverse,

All participate, left and right, and centre,

And God knows who,

Dance with the flow of things,

In the hope notoriety it brings,

Even those that on the fringes,

And those maligned before,

Gather all like sheep,

Bah some say and weep,

Yeah well you say, so what,

That’s our species at its best,

Carry on, and on they will,

After all, we pay the bill,©02/03/2017
