Poems of the Week

Sorry

by Mike Mesterton-Gibbons

“The prime minister has said sorry to a headteacher after leading primary school children in a version of the viral 6-7 dance meme.”

Say sorry, Keir Starmer. Good heavens!
Obedient under-elevens
Remained rather quiet,
Refraining from riot …
Yet now they’re at sixes and sevens!
