Dear Old Guy (CTG)

Guy Fawkes by George Cruikshank (1792-1878)
Dear Old Guy
A bit of childhood fun,
to dress up a dear old Guy
and burn him on a bonfire
amid bangers and skyrockets:
a yearly whoop-up--whoopie!--
born of religious intolerance,
innocuous really, whether today
with trilby or a mock mitre
though with a barbwire kiss
thugs might drag a Guy
from his doorway swill
and set him alight. Poor Guy.
