Enter the protagonist
The formula soon to splatter.
They’d almost put the deal to bed, now
anarchy reigns and air waves shatter.
September 9, 2012
He spent years sat on the Tube
in the midst of life, yet speaking
to no-one.
Now decades later, he sits in a
Care Home doing exactly the
same.
The journey was exhilarating
and much better than the arrival.
For being there meant facing the
prospect of the departure, which
would come around far too quickly.
He made a blunder
He stole his thunder
Is it any wonder
he was set asunder?

The park is full of doo-dah
from pooches large and small.
Lamp-posts too are minging, and
where there’s none, they’ve used the wall!
When power becomes personal
and not for the good of the team,
the whole damn lot comes tumbling down,
for the sake of one man and his dream.

If you’re a lucky person
and win a fortune you will find,
that if you tell, you’ll have the world
at your door, all neatly lined.

You’ve got two seconds to say yes or no.
The answer we need to be clear.
Don’t shilly-shally up Quaver Street.
The taxpayer needs to hear.
In just one sentence tell us the facts.
Is it true, what we already fear?
Don’t babble about on Helium Street.
Are things as bad as they seem to appear?

He’ll twist it and turn it, and embellish the clues.
He’ll electrify it, espy it, the truth it may lose.
He’s only sniffing around for a story to use,
in an endless battle for headline news.

The judge knew it
The barrister knew it.
The solicitor knew it too.
They had lost on a technicality,
and justice, out of the window, blew.
