I have a beautiful garden in Paris

Which I have named Mimi

After the long forgotten river

Which used to flow in this area


Today I received a letter from the authorities

Noting that that I must sell my garden

As a new road is being built locally

I have no rights of appeal


During the latter stages of the last war

My grandfather was part of an elite unit

Tasked with mopping up enemy officers

As they retreated towards the Pyrenees


I now own my grandfathers lethal pistol

A Luger which he took from a dead German

It is a fine weapon which I will shortly use

To assassinate the corruption of our mayor
