A poem for Boris Johnson to quote when out in the field
When a knight won his spurs in the stories of old
He was gentle and brave he was gallant and bold,
With faith as his shield he would muster his might
And slaughtering dragons he’d fight for the Right.
Today he slays braggarts who, guilty of guile,
Exude playful charm with a treacherous smile
They run with the hares and hunt with the hounds
And, testing the boundaries, play out of bounds.
Such bounders he loathes who on mischief are set
And are to their leaders a bane and a threat,
But with threats of dismissal and loss of their friends
By fear he will force them to make their amends.
With past gaffes behind them, their lessons now earned
And for their transgressions deservedly spurned
They will swear on their honour as men born anew
Not to do as they may, but as May would them do.
