One that I found in my book I edited it to make the metaphor more obvious but now I think ive made it too obvious but anyway.
Tap
The echoing drip of a running tap
The sink is slowly filling
as everything around is silent
except for the water spilling
If more bad people
Are born every day
I guess our struggling society
Is here to stay
Because in a nation of drunks,
Rascists,and yobs
and an ever decreasing amount of jobs
I guess it will be full soon
The waters up to halfway now
It will overflow soon
And our little country
will be doomed
The owners wont be back for hours
No-one to save us
from the dripping tap
Football Hooligans,
Terrorists
and the endless amount
of corrupt politicians
who couldn't help even
if they could be bothered
We may as well all migrate
theres no way to save us
theres no way to retaliate
Only a second left and then
it will be full
Riots and protests and all that bull
we need to stop now
before its too late
theres a whole new society
we need to help to create
One last drip then an almighty splash
Hopefully now well learn from the past
