Come, friendly rains

Come friendly rains, come cold, come clouds!
The weather’s lovely out there now,
So bovine pricks will picnic out.
Storm over - stat!

Come, rains, and soak the hills and greens
To stop them filling up, obscene
With gits, with twits, with fools, with divs,
With mindless twats.

Mess up the mess they claim is fair -
A beach-trip here, a park-rest there -
As if the fucking virus scare
Is not for them.

And get the man whose barbecue
Is full of drinking wankers who
Are flouting the two-metre rule
Once and again.

But spare the knackered nurses, please,
Exhausted on their hands and knees
With cheap bin-bags for PPE:
It’s far from right.

It’s not their fault they’re in distress.
The Tories fucked the NHS,
And think applause will save their necks
On Thursday nights.

First it was Herd Immunity
They spoke of on the BBC:
And all those deaths in Italy?
Unfortunate.

But then the one with frizzy hair
Contracted it (from his au pair?)
You’ll bet he gets the best of care
Til it abates.

Come, friendly rains, come cold, come clouds
So picnickers won’t be around.
A long weekend means nothing now
So Isolate.
