A short poem written against the background of middle class opposition to Brexit and the working class Yellow Vest movement.
While Middle England marched like sheep
On London streets not paved with gold;
And Little England watch and peep
Befuddled ‘ticians arrange their keep:
In Lyon, Lille and La Rochelle,
In Paris, Nice, Toulouse le trek,
La France of blazon Yellow tells
A people down but not yet felled.
