Who’d be a Viking
On St Brice’s Day?
When the striking starts
It smarts,
Whatever they may say.
‘Unready’ they said
He’d be, that Bastard
King, Ethelred; Danes
At pains
To dodge the deeds he fostered.
To our counsels kept
We took our down time
While in they crept, and swords,
Not words,
Were used to draw the line.
