Poetry: Hive (Things are changing…) by @NarkiP

The hive is creep­ing out, I repeat

The hive is creep­ing out my friend.

They won­der why so many things have changed,

The truth being they will nev­er be the same

For the hive is creep­ing out.

For years in draw­ing rooms and brothels in the land,

Big­ots and judges spit out their view.

That the Blacks are here, bloody Rag Heads to stay

And fair Old Eng­land is los­ing her pure blue.

Now a mix is Old Town, awash with the col­our,

The slaves, dogs, work­men of old

Are shrug­ging their shoulders, unshack­ling loose chains

And con­front­ing Britannia’s shield so bold.

The hive is creep­ing out my friend

Wheth­er the sluts like it or not,

For through plun­der abroad and a grow­ing machine,

Seis­mic con­sequences in idle neigh­bour­hoods are soon to be seen.

The fol­low­ing two tabs change con­tent below.
