Mark Harper he\u2019s the Tory
\nCovered in some glory
\nStone Henge and the Tunnel
\nThe contemptuous ness remains
\nWidening the A303
\nAnd constructing a tunnel
\nBringing in the JCB\u2019s the labouring hordes
\nWho might
\nDisrespect any antiquities
\nAnd leave behind the blight<\/p>\n
Earthworks Neolithic workings
\nObligation who knows what
\nDispassionate objectives
\nWrongheadedness we are on the spot
\nWe look across and see the stones
\nPeering over Salisbury Plain
\nIn and around and under
\nBewilderment who knows what gain<\/p>\n
A garish loud vulgarity
\nA sort of tactless indelicacy
\nIn the earth who knows now what
\nCoin or armour or ancient pot
\nCircumstance and adversity
\nA visitation that all May see<\/p>\n
It\u2019s harmony be swept aside
\nTo accelerate and thus divide
\nTo facilitate the simplicity
\nWhere spatial visual relations be
\nGreat vandalism cometh toward
\nThe counselling with due reward <\/p>\n
The Tory finger\u2019s in the jam
\nSuch agitation maybe they cram
\nAll sort of mechanised machinery
\nMaltreatment too it seems to me
\nThe great sledgehammer to smash away
\nRide roughshod over the old display
\nRuination and collapse
\nUneventful drainage taps
\nReluctance to show avid care
\nAnd enthusiastic and aware<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
