Poetry Break: D'oh! Canada

D'Oh! Canada


With protesters making a mess,

Acting on violent whim

Wearing Black not Green,

And disrupting, disrupting

Just before QE II - Your Queen too, it seems

Was Due in Toronto,


D'Oh! Canada,

Better wipe off the graffiti, and let the last of the disruptors go,

Smile to the Queen, and bow very low...

But - don't feel too down,

Your worst was not so bad a sin

In LA we damaged far more,

Just celebrating the Laker's win.

(I suppose if the Leafs ever win the Cup again,

The Queen (or heir) should stay in the UK

Or swing south of the border, or north of Hudson's Bay ...)
