Devoid of Virtue


£900,000 to paint Boris Johnsons personal plane
While many don't have enough for food for table,
Engulfed in despair and utter desolation
Trying to keep lives afloat on troubled waters,
Our Prime minister it seems has money to burn
Foolish man, with overrated sense of self- importance,
Brimming with selfishness that must be reviled
Who believes aid to poor countries should be denied,
As he swaggers and blusters across the land
Making mockery, releasing arrogance of power,
This money could be spent on free school vouchers
Or a years salary for 36 newly qualified nurses,
Instead of a revolting lurid vanity project
Many feeling this folly truly obscene,
As our country faces really grim future
This red white and blue paint job, taking the piss,
A vacuous leaders wasteful distraction
Sycophantic pillock in need of gratification,
While the tears of Grenfell continue to fall
Where's the recovery cash, for all the survivors,
Can you see them, hear their cries
Beyond this Tory clots tactless makeover.
