Noughty Boys

Noughty boys with filthy hands,
they got their servants clawing all the lands.
Grimy fingerprints are left, that’s all.
Office girls,
typewriter eyes, go click-clack click-clack,
dictate fondness time.
Suffocate and suffragette that’s all.
Factory child, pink turbines, suckling toggles, emitting machinery whines.
New born bits of scrap in cribs, that’s all.
Family plot, lain in haste.
Machinations planning dinner grace.
Mother, Father, Little One,
and all sorts of malefic fun, that’s all.
Run the school and burn the people.
Wed the forest, watch the steeple.
Never run to help the people.
one, two, three, four, A, B, C… (noughty boys)
