Her Majesty's Passport Office

Her Majesty's Passport Office

Noise , ring, buzzer,
Hubbub and general chit-chat
Cash changing hands
Let the money flow
mug shots of passengers
Who have yet to travel
Standing and sitting
Watching and waiting
Queuing by numbers
Filling in forms for renewals or first timers
Within all this chaos
Do the people know who they really are?
Can they prove it?
To be a name and a number
Meaning you have the right to go
Wherever you may want to.

What a palaver!!
