Theresa Did

 So, farewell then, Theresa May.
 Theresa May. A strange name for a 
 Prime Minister. So
 Conditional, so
 Tentative, so
 Hesitant, so
 Equivocal, so
 Subjunctive, so
 Uncertain.
 She has gone,
 But Nothing Has Changed.
  
 Theresa may decide.
 Theresa may waver.
 Theresa may resign.
 Theresa may run through sunlit fields of wheat, 
 Under blue skies and high, wispy clouds,
 Naked and abandoned.
 She has gone,
 But Nothing Has Changed.
  
 Theresa will dissemble.
 Theresa will obfuscate.
 Theresa will not answer the question.
 Theresa will be frightened and alone in a crowded room of dangerous foreigners.
 Theresa will cry hot tears in the street, angry and confused.
 She has gone,
 But Nothing Has Changed.
  
 Theresa May.
 Theresa Did.
