Royal Watchers Poem by Francis Duggan

Royal Watchers



I pity them they do not seem to have much in their lives
On their kind of people class distinction thrives
On Princess Mary and her new born Prince too much to read, hear and see
It seems all old baloney to judgemental me.

In their seemingly harmless hobby royal watchers persist
But without them the royals would cease to exist
Snobbery and class distinction the masses create
Though at the demise of all royals many would celebrate.

They shout god save the monarch as the monarch is driven by
But what does the monarch care for them or I
What with our mortal celebrities and our gods in the sky
Why we need someone to look up to I do wonder why?

A woman born in Tasmania in the southern-most Land
But why all the fuss about her I do not understand
Married to a Danish prince she has given birth to his son
And though I'm not a royalist to Mary well done.
