Limerick Friday #450: Celebrating The Peaky Blinders, Plus The Opposite Void In Leadership



England's street minders
Armed with sidewinders
Stand aside, sah
By order of the
Inimitable Peaky Blinders

Another trip to the Big Easy
Planning that makes ya queasy
Beads, beignets, and Abita
Un po'boy por favor, senorita
Parades and smiles made it more breezy

The committee's picks were the worst
As State got its bubble burst
But in the Old Barn a coupla dubs
While baseball keeps trouncing clubs
And the women's team fights for first

Fearless on the pitch
Doesn't back down a stitch
Natural at pulling the flag
And running without a lag
For competition, the kid has an itch

License to steal and plunder
Lies the rain, racism the thunder
Government up for sale
A country set up to fail
Democracy sadly torn asunder
