Asses Dressed In Ermine Poem by David Wood
Asses Dressed In Ermine
The law is an ass dressed in ermine robes
The ass is guided by the government monkeys
Who wield the whip of parliamentary statutes.
The disabled, who store medical equipment
In their spare bedroom, are to be evicted
To go into smaller unsuitable accommodation.
The minister who introduced the Bedroom Tax
Will probably be knighted or given an honour
At the expense of the evicted disabled tenants.
The law is just the strong arm of the government
To do the governments will at the expense of the
Disabled and poor who are just trying to survive.
A great poem, I can only see it getting worse, it may get better in the end with people pressure but by then it will be too late, the damage will be done.
Strange is this bedroom tax. Some tax laws are always strange.
very controversial poem. thinking of the independent case mentioned in this poem, it is all right and the disabled people should be protected..more over London is promoting single mothers.. other opinions of David are not very clear..
David, love your work! If spirit moves you check out my poem, On Justice, it deals with this theme. Cheers!
