British politics: Boris and Brexit

Politics can be a fascinating game

for those who are dedicated to it

but for those of us who don't feel the same

it can be a slimy and dangerous pit

in which morality goes to rot

as selfish egos ever plot--

but always in disguise

so, if discovered, it's apparently a surprise.

Just as Boris Johnson is no Caesar

I'm no Shakespeare, as I state dryly,

that Victory often slips to those who seize her

while clever and discreet enough to stay wily.
