....
as I opened the door I knew -
the mermaid in the bath would sing
for the unicorn under the bed
'vote labour' he said -
my teenage self joined the call
of myths in which we stand
- appalled -
that discontent would slam the door
....
as I opened the door I knew -
the mermaid in the bath would sing
bare arsed kids would run to see
who it was that rapped
'greenpeace' he said - to match his badge -
a smile followed slick with oil
can he take my details
to help save the whale
now when I'm cooking gammon
finding mammon
on my front step
made my climate alter -
my words were less than eco-friendly
as I put yon wood in toil
....
peace:)
