Morandi Bridge

It happened in a rainstorm
A cloud burst of a day
A massive bolt of lightning
And the great bridge it gave way
Over the Polcevera river
150 feet
Cars and trucks came crashing down
An apocalyptic feat

All this reinforced concrete
The A10 motorway
Built in 1960
On a wretched day
They were queuing
At that moment
When the great long piece gave way
And hurtled downwards crushingly
Where cars and bodies lay

I couldnt sleep tonight almost hearing the cries of those poor souls
Swept to their deaths through no fault of their own
The Great EU has much to answer for and the people of the various countries
Must wake up and see where sll the money is being frittered away to
Vast armies of bureaucrats belping themselves whilst our infra structure crumbles. Wake up remoaners forvgods sake
