bought the village green for £1 beercrombe - leaving highgate 26.07.18

hopefully 50 years and more
man upstairs don't want to rattle
not one more story to endure
staying down here on green grazing like cattle.
it was a bargain
just like the red box that's iconic
like free with no charging
village obsession is chronic.
of course villagers will maintain
in highgate not one bad bone
daddy got here on a gravy train
staying put not heading for beercrombe.
tony davies had a obsession
but all his aspirations were no forge
passing the green never gives depressions
not thinking of tony or the V1 george.
it is ever green
going to flourish with the faith cycle
to spin this story is just obscene
appropriate to say my inspirational brother was michael.
hate to explain poetry. got no faith in my words at all.
