Briefly, thick fog parts like bedroom curtains,
Revelations sparkle for a moment,
So brightly that eyes are almost blinded.
Corruption stands starkly, proudly, erect.
Smeared with cadaverine, stench overwhelms.
This Brexit messenger lies, nonchalant,
As he infers fake Civil Service plot.
An arrogant bully gaslights us all, Sneers about snowflakery activists,
Yet one more sociopathic Tory,
Denigrates Trade Union membership,
Writes pamphlets against E U human rights,
Denies all charges, resigns anyway.
Westminster fog swallows him up again.

Harry Rogers in the Red Bedroom, 23rd April 2023
