“Seize the games!”
Is what I’d shout
if ancient Romans
were in any doubt
as to my madness.
.
I’m sorry to say
that I missed the day
when the Romans ruled the world
(well, an awful lot of it);
but, if I had been there
I might not be here now
telling you how
I’d have made myself look
an absolute fool
by shouting loudly
‘A shatterproof rule!’
