It was going Oh so well
trappings of minor statehood
given to someone unblemished
from the predecessors office
but when he and his wise men
went looking for pennies
to stick in the town hall piggybank
he upset quite a few (not just one or two)
and as schools and sports halls were sold off
and grand schemes of friends they were planned
those they called “The affected”
amassed on Town hall land
our man at the top – reassessed now
and fled for his chauffeur driven car
ending up the next day – somewhere far away
in a place he wouldn’t be tarred
