A Spikeful Poem

 

Celebrating the genius of
Spike Milligan

Enlisted by coincidence
Expectations running high
To struggle up the hefty hours
Lacking natural reasons why

I take this journey often
As things go it is a must
Avoiding it on rainy days
Should they turn me into rust

If you see me at the other end
Let's pretend we never met
Then once again we’ll go there twice
Though we’ve never been there yet


Wikipedia: "When the Commonwealth Immigrants Act removed Indian-born Milligan's automatic right to British citizenship in 1962,[4] he became an Irish citizen,[1] exercising a right conferred through his Irish-born father."
