Brex

England can't leave Europe. It just can't.
No matter all the tantrums it may throw.
It's stationary as a potted plant
That might desire,  but cannot move to go.
It may dissolve the legal ties between
The Continent (and Ireland) and it
But do recall it cannot flee the scene
Despite its protests in its current snit.
Its neighbours are its neighbours, come what may;
A plant cannot uproot itself and walk.
And so no matter what the Leavers say
Ultimately it must be all talk:
That doesn't mean it could not be the worst--
A plant uprooted tends to die of thirst.
