A DECENT PEOPLE

I was in the British museum
admiring what was stolen

when word csme my way
that someone
in Downing Street
was methinks
protesting too much

strange thing was
he was outside the Prime
Minister’s house
at a dais, facing
away from the front door

perhaps leading people
to believe
that contrary to
speech content, delivery,
and all appearances

this poor wretched and
confused individual, might
well be
the Prime Minister himself,
