Decaying Ever, Ever On – a Poem by The Sixty Second Scribe

Decaying ever, ever on - a poem by the sixty second scribe
The pm claims integrity
Then appoints the one who’d happily
See refugees drown out at sea 
And our decay goes ever, ever on 
Sacked just days ago for breaks
To ministerial code, he shakes
his head, defends, ignores the stakes
And our decay goes ever, ever on 
One who dreams of deportation
Shames this once proud welcoming nation 
Stoking national stagnation 
And our decay goes ever, ever on
Claims that lessons have been learnt
Clearly lies - more bridges burnt
Positions bought but never earned
And our decay goes ever, ever on
That he lied’s already clear
Which marks him out as Johnson’s peer
And leaves an atmosphere of fear
As our decay goes ever, ever on
