A Poem for the New Hermione Granger . . . (part two sort of) and my last word on the subject.

I have heard there is much disquiet

About a Black Hermione Granger in a play

But as we all know Britain is

A multicultural diverse

Sort of modern place to live in today

And besides there are many things

That would appear to be so much worse

Because it could have been Maria

From the Sound of Music

Which really would be a curse?

Or it could be been a chap pretending to be Hermione

Like in pantomime as chaps do

Shouting at the audience

Who in turn shout back?

It’s behind you

Or a huge mutant giant Squid

Getting her first big break upon the stage

Who on forgetting the lines

At a critical point

Then eats the audience in a rage

So I think we should all cheer and clap

And accept the choice

That has been made

Although I bet I get thrown out (again)

Because I sneaked in and never paid.
