'Five and
twenty ponies,
Trotting through the dark -
Brandy for the Parson, 'Baccy for the Clerk.
Laces for a lady; letters for a spy,
Watch the wall my darling while the Gentlemen go by!'
(A Smuggler's Song by Rudyard Kipling)
there's a history of Smuggling
in the area I came from
no great mystery
unlike the elite
Smugglers
weren't smug
mugs
were so
obviously struggling
to make ends meet
as many
poor sods
more mere clods
have done
throughout history
