Sense Sonnet - Tickler

Margaret Thatcher

Margaret Thatcher and the press
Gave each other a lot of flack.
Journalists 'round her did possess
Lots of foreign made knic and knac -
Like tape recorders from Japan,
Italian suits and U.S. stuff.
She ordered a foreign made ban.
The Iron Lady could play rough.
"Buy British" was her hot campaign,
Till the press caught her on a trip.
Her fervor then began to wane,
As the press let a tidbit "slip."

To the Falklands, she did embark,
Her hair rollers made in Denmark.
