In Dundee, Penzance and Ealing,
your concern for the rights of
woman is especially good news.
Who breaks the egg will find the yolk,
remember fish don't grow on trees.
We avoided each other's eyes,
the nation rejoices or mourns.
I used to think all poets were Byronic.
Love is already turning to hate,
that's why this country's going down the drain.
