THE GUY ~ ON HIGH ~ ON FIRE ~ HIS PYRE !
AFTER the BONFIRE ~ An ashen pyre
Deepest ash where the flames leapt higher !
Spent shells of fireworks ~ lie burned out on the grass
The Glory of the Vista ~ it shall pass !
Celebration of a failed Gunpowder Plot
Gunpowder cold lies unfused in the vault !
GUY FAWKES was HUNG ~ then DRAWN ~ then QUARTER
For doing what He didnt oughter !
We celebrate this Treasoned Night each YEAR
And when GUY FAWKES ~ is oxidised ~ we CHEER !
MILLIONS of our hard earned cash ~ goes up in smoke
Most people treat it as a HYSTER~RICAL JOKE !
So it is with our LIVES ~ We brightly BURN
And then we die & smoulder ~ TO DUST RETURN ~ AMEN !
Thanks for visiting ~ please comment ~ Love BRIAN 🧡🧡🧡
