Now and Then

The Romans had their orgies The Tudors had their feasts Fish or fowl for starters Then rare exotic beasts
Garnished to perfection Glazed beyond belief Suckling pig and pheasant Best mutton and roast beef
Venison and wild boar Relishing the fare With ever increasing waistlines They really didn’t care
Now we pop it in the microwave Drum fingers while it’s zapped Not knowing if the contents Ran,or grazed,or flapped
The presentations lacking And so are many courses As we chew we idly wonder If we are eating horses

Brilliant as usual John, maybe it should be Back Then and-- Now.
