Demonstrations In Lockdown Poem by Paul Warren

Waiting around in our lockdown
Keeping busy without a frown
Suddenly what did I see on TV
Something that I thought I'd never see
Surely not they aren't that dumb
A demonstration in lockdown for fun

They abused everyone but mostly it was the police
And they demanded a quick lockdown release
There was a fire eater there as well
For entertainment they thought was swell
So I wondered why these people decided
COVID 19 was not for them and not provided

Some people only open their mouths for us to be enticed
That they are self centred and can't be left to their own device
So they are fined for being out whilst not allowed
And beating horses which was so foul
The only saving grace in it all for us
Is that their mates dob them in without a fuss.
