Farewell Alan Bond

So Farewell
then
Alan
Bond.

The most
infamous
Ozzie
contrapreneur.

You gave
Laurie Connell
a "run for
his money".
(no pun intended)

Few young specs
will recall
your name;
But,
they should.

For you were
a case study on
the peril(s)
of paying
way too much.

Apparently,
you also
stole
lots of things -
illegally.

But at least
you stole THE Cup
from the Yanks
fair and
square.

(With apologies to Private Eye and EJ Thribb)

    Your winged keel

    Later, you did the crime
    But you did the time
    True Blue
    Hero
