Rejoice

 

Prince Willy and his woman are to wed.

The world unites to say that we are blessed.

(In Haiti cholera’s claimed a thousand dead.)

 

Polluted water means the plague will spread,

but Will was born within the royal nest

and he and Katie said they will be wed.

 

The paparazzi’s frenzy must be fed.

The print and broadcast media are obsessed.

(In Haiti cholera’s claimed a thousand dead.)

 

On midday’s news another talking head

opined upon the nature of the dress

Miss Middleton will wear when she gets wed.

 

There  must be something they can say instead

of drooling in this sycophancy-fest.

(In Haiti cholera’s claimed a thousand dead.)

 

His father’s mother’s father’s brother said

‘I’m going to marry someone who’s divorced’

and so the fuss when Willy’s getting wed.
