Pomp and ceremony

Oh! how the rich and wealthy gather

In their hordes of money fame and influence

To see the crowning of Charles in his glory

Yet unlike past kings and Queens there are no legendary acts in his story

A monarchy irrelevant save for being tourist entertainment

Bringing in money through its historical brand

It means so little to the working man

Who is suffering under a flaccid, corrupt and failing government

Struggling under a cost of living crisis

Yet having to witness where the rich types spice is

Being lauded in front of us in all its pomp and ceremony

While being told there’s no more money for you and me

So while they regale in their grandeur and affluence

We will have to remain content with a whole lot less as sustenance.
