Never Mind The Bollards
Here is a poem inspired by the announcement of yet more Coventry roadworks, to add to the seemingly almost never ending Council led traffic gridlock in the City.
NEVER MIND THE BOLLARDS
Coventry Council traffic planners held a meeting
They'd received news that would take some beating
Forget the housing crisis or the fight against crime
Some determined motorist had got to work on time
Immediately they vowed to stamp out this blight
They ordered a hundred diggers and dozens more red lights
Never mind the bollards, it must never be forgotten
No road left unturned, to make your journey rotten
Nothing would divert their policy of diversions
Making short trips numerous hours long excursions
After all it's a City renowned for the car boom
So why not turn it into a static motor showroom?
Its all about progress gridlocking each thoroughfare
Despite the fact everybody is going nowhere
Never mind the bollards, this is a City vicious
Where travelling from A to B is over ambitious
