Jonny’s walk
One fine day Jonny decided to go for a walk
and maybe do a spot of gardening on the way.
Something must have prompted him
What might that thought have been?
All pitch performers step out of course
but it’s a matter of when to project those toes.
Jonny ambled on as if no lines mattered
And the gloved sniper rattled his triple.
Accusations, defences, moralising followed,
so many of us having Jonny moments.
