Meghan And Harry By Mike Mesterton-Gibbons

Meghan And Harry


	
Millennials adore this pair, yet their

Explosive documentary release

Gives boomers pause. Has Harry been unfair?

He should have let his grandma rest in peace!

As he and Meghan dish more dirt, the high

Nobility close ranks around the Crown

And worry for its future ... though here's why

No lord need fear the monarchy's brought down:

Duke Harry and his Duchess whine on cue,

Harrumph and humblebrag and slag the Firm

And pose and preen for cameras, but eschew

Revealing all they know—the pachyderm,

Right in the room. Why? I believe these souls

Yearn secretly for proper royal roles!
