Reaction to the Prime Minister's Lockdown Exit Plan

It was a chilly
Monday morning
Strong winds coming
From the North East
On Prince Street
Iron swing bridge
Across Bristol harbour
My spiral snail-shell
Overheard
A fat man's
Reaction to
Our Prime Minister's
Lockdown exit plan
'I decided to watch
James Bond
in Skyfall instead.
Stuff Boris!'

Bristol, May 2020
