WE can’t be too careful
about the British Public.
It gets bigger and
bigger
and its
perambulator has to get bigger and bigger
and its dummy-teat has to be
made bigger and bigger and bigger
and the job of changing its diapers gets bigger
and bigger and
bigger and bigger
and the sound of its howling gets bigger and bigger and
bigger
and bigger
and bigger
and the
feed of pap that we nurses and guardian angels of
the press have to deal out to
it
gets bigger and
bigger and bigger and bigger and bigger and bigger
yet its belly-ache seems to get
bigger too
and soon
even god won’t be big enough to handle that infant.
