five long years of crying
of broken heartedness
the government sits on its hands
the whole nation must stress
those victims trapped and burning
no exits which we saw
the cladding adding to the fire
which many did ignore
cosmetic cladding councils
added to the high rise
left in a hopeless quandry
we all must realise
the savage nature of this fire
the neglect was everywhere
and five years have gone
and all I feel was absolute despair.
all this cosmetic cladding
the councils who agreed
to reinstating all of it
have to now concede
they were in the wrong
and must pay for it
