PORTSMOUTH GRAMMAR SCHOOL PART 2

There they are,
again,
filing along the street
Portsmouth Grammar School's
herd of haughty cattle

back from the cathedral,
yet another
fucking mass
christ
they're always at it

except today
there is a slight
sartorial flourish,
every single male pupil is wearing
a kind of dark and light blue tie
and each female
a sort of scarf kerchief type thing
in the same colours

These aren't the school colours!
They're red and gold and black.
The fuckers
have gone and
for some godforsaken reason
got a whole pile of special neckwear

Why would any educational establishment
for a day
stroll around in another set of colours?
What weary sad pathetic
moron tore that idea from out the bag?
What cruddy ropy half-baked
harking back to tradition
summoned up such a blazingly
ostentatious display
of vile sliminess

There they are,
again,
filing along the street
Portsmouth Grammar School's
flock of slithery sycophantic sheep
