Cerberus hellhound

 In July 2023

Cerberus hellhound

Breathed on Europe,

With one of his three heads,

Burning green trees to ash,

Turning fertile soil to dust.

But in smug Brexit Britain smug Brexit Brits were smug

Sitting staring out to sea

From urine perfumed promenade shelters

Trying to discern

A horizon between grey and grey 

And thinking about fish and chips,

As squalls blew in.

But don’t let Cerberus

Get a whiff of that,

Or he will lift all three of his heads.

And he will

One day.
