The Wall
- Details
- Written February 2025
Mend the one who fell off the wall,
Instead frustratedly they demolish the wall
As did Berliners, saying ‘times up’,
While Israelis started theirs
With Palestinians looking on in horror
And Mexicans know it’s on the cards for them
When someone says enough is too much,
While a victorious commander-in-chief
Becomes a defeated politician
So retreats to his garden with mortar-board and trowel
To build a wall which still stands, [1]
Awaiting trumpets on their seventh time round
And down it will come - welcoming all.[2]

The wall at Hall Place, Bexley Heath.
